The developer of Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails is working on a new title on Wii U, which he confirmed in a recent Eurogamer interview.
Although I never played it, Scram Kitty looked really cool, so I'm definitely glad to hear he's working on a new game! Especially since it's on Wii U.
I love it (Wii U)! It's still a little joy box to me. As a developer, I'm still working on a project right now I can't talk about now on the Wii U. It always brings a lot of new potential to gameplay, because you think about things in a different way. It's always nice to have more control options, and more weirdness in your hardware in terms of being able to inspire new ideas in a developer. I'm sad it hasn't reached the market it was supposed to, or I expected it to. But in terms of delivering good games I think it's doing well.
I'm a big fan of all crazy hardware. As a kid, and as a developer, I've always been interested in things that use hardware and interesting ways, and interesting hardware that brings new interesting experiences. That is the essence of gameplay for me, that fusion of the hardware and software together - when the hardware's more quirky, the software can become so.
