[Interview] Curve Studios discusses Stealth Inc 2’s home on Wii U, potential future for Fluidity, and more

Stealth Inc seemed like the furthest thing from a Wii U eShop release when it came out in 2013. The PlayStation versions came and went, and there was no word on a release for Nintendo’s console.
Still, when time for planning a sequel came around, something within Curve Studios clicked. This led to the company announcing Stealth Inc 2 as a Wii U exclusive – at least for the time being – back in May, which surprised quite a number of folks. For Wii U owners though, it’s great news.
We sat down via email (wait a second…) with Rob Clarke from Curve Studios to ask about Stealth Inc 2, working on Wii U, and the company’s other beloved gaming baby Fluidity. I think you’ll enjoy much of what they have to say:

Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Curve Studios marketing manager Rob Clarke confirmed to Destructoid that Lone Survivor will be available for Wii U in November. Additionally, The Swapper and Stealth Inc 2 will follow within the month.
On the topic of new content for the Wii U version of Lone Survivor, Curve Studios marketing manager Rob Clarke said:
“We’re not adding any new content to Lone Survivor, as we added such a huge amount when we originally made the Director’s Cut edition for PlayStation last year. But we’ll have all the content in from the start and we’re making full use of the GamePad.”
Stealth Inc 2 estimated to be twice as big as the original, nearing completion

Curve Studios is wrapping up work on the Wii U exclusive title Stealth Inc 2. The game is said to be “in the final straits now”, according to the company’s Jonathan Biddle.
Biddle tweeted a status update for Stealth Inc 2 earlier today while also revealing that the game is about twice as big as the original.
He said:
Stealth Inc 2 has turned out huge. 182 rooms, over 500 screens in size. It's about 2 Stealth Inc 1s, which sounds somehow like it should be.

Phew! Stealth Inc 2 in the final straits now. All content and features done, just messy and buggy. Submission mere weeks away.
— Bidds (@onebitbeyond) July 22, 2014
We've made this monster in only nine months too. Probably only possible because we made it all in GameMaker first to solidify the design.
