Forums - Nintendo - Wii Mysterious Dark Game: Winter

alfredofroylan on 20 January 2009

Yes, Matt Cassamassina "Dark Game" is finally revelead and its name is Winter

But for so many reasons that the developer talks about below, Winter was not to be -- not due to any major shortcomings on the game's part, but rather the restrictions imposed upon the Wii market by third-party publishers simply unwilling to take a gamble on a more traditional project. Today, IGN presents to you the first look at the in-limbo game complete with details about its origins and development from n-Space president Dan O'leary and studio creative director Ted Newman, first-ever art, screenshots and direct-feed gameplay footage.

Ok, sound good. But looks too similar to Silent Hill in my opinion. Probably that's the reason of why they couldn't find a publisher. The sales of games like Silent Hill Homecoming and Oscure 2 are really bad and most of the copanies think that it's a high risk to release a game like this

Sounds overly ambitious. The motion elements might have a better chance with Wii Motion plus though.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

Perhaps now that it has been revealed, it might find a publisher, especially now that mature content is slowly finding a home on the Wii.

And does anyone else think that some of the gameplay sounds distinctly Sadness-esque?

Wow. It looks a bit creepy, but I reckon I could probably play it and not pull a One_touch_KO. I want a game like this!

That actually looks really good for a pre build as a pitch.

We need to start a "We Want Winter" campaign.



neotea on 20 January 2009

now that a lot more people have seen what the prebuild looks like and it is now 2009 instead of 2007 they might have a better chance now, and he did say that they figured a lot more technique as well.
