Remake developers chat with the creator of Wonder Boy
I will seize any opportunity to bring upWonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap, a gorgeous remake ofWonder Boy IIIfrom Lizardcube, and today’s developer chat with the original creator fits that simple criteria.
“In July we went to Kyoto to demo the game at the BitSummit festival and to meet with Ryuichi Nishizawa, creator ofWonder Boy, who helped us get this remake going. Until then all our communication were over e-mail and on Skype. So it was nice to finally meet (completely jet-lagged, in the sweaty Japanese summer). We showed him the latest build and asked him some questions about his work on the beloved series!” This video is the result, and in it, we learn about the project’s origin.
There are a fewWonder Boy-related projectsin the pipeline right now, but if I had to choose between them, this would undoubtedly be the one for me. I am obsessed with its aesthetic and animation.
