US team Medaverse Studios has officially revealed plans to support Nintendo's Wii console, starting off with a game called 'Gravitronix' for the WiiWare download service.
"We're immensely grateful to Nintendo for giving us this opportunity [...] As a creative team, we had always toyed with the idea of game development and we even had an RPG in the planning stages during the height of the GBA's popularity. We had all but given up on that dream, but when Nintendo first revealed the Wii remote to the world, that dream came back with a vengeance. Once WiiWare appeared on the horizon, we knew it was our chance.
"We're looking forward to introducing our own unique style to the gaming world with Gravitronix. We hope to offer a fun and accessible gaming experience which is easy to learn but a challenge to master, including a robust multiplayer mode with enough hidden depth to keep even the most hardcore of players struggling to outdo each other. The way we see it, if you don't swear when you lose to another player, we haven't done our job."
- Jesse Lowther, Medaverse Lead Designer.
The game is set to be in the action-battle mould, supports between 1-4 people, is shown in a single-screen arena and comes with plenty of projectile weapons, all with different physics. The game was originally started in 2006, but no proposed release date has so far been unveiled.
