Mushihimesama Duel(?) announced (iOS/Android)

Post by Oniros »

Source

If someone could translate this news it would be great. Looks like a new mobile game with remixed levels from Mushi Futari + levelling system + new character or something like that. This looks to be in developed by a Korean company with a licence from Cave.

The horror. Koreans desacralize everything they touch. This is worse than death.

At least they will live on in our hearts.



Of course they'll come back to life after the second coming of Yagawa. Unfortunately that probably won't be happening in our lifetimes.

But seriously let's see how this will turn out. I doubt this will even get a release outside of Asian territories.

Someone remind me when this comes out, I want to try it :p
There's a twitter to follow ( https://twitter.com/BugPrincessDuel ), so I guess I'll follow that.

Dunno how to feel about this. Oh the one hand, I'm kind of thrilled that Mushi Futari is getting an "expansion pack" because I adore the game, but on the other, I'm kind of terrified that a new development studio is going to ruin everything =/.

The new character looks pretty cool.

Anyone happy about this deserves to be banned.

I don't think I've ever had such a change in emotion in such a short time while reading the title to the thread.

This is depressing.

I personally like traps, but only when it's about 1 or 2 of them. When half the damned cast is overflowing with them then you start to wonder if it's simply the artist not being able to draw guys.

I have to admit I got a laugh out of the series's two characters getting pushed out of the hedge of the frame.

Pretty sure the girl in the center and the boy on the far left are just Reco and Palm in alternate outfits. At least, I hope they aren't trying to pass them off as new characters, haha.

Yeah, that's definitely Reco. That Palm on the far left is his original design, I think.

Not sure why you'd think having a character in an alternate costume be on the poster with their original selves is a good idea.

It looks like the developer is "Raonnetworks"? These are the other games they've developed:

I haven't played any of these, but from the looks of it, they appear to specialize in freemium shovelware. Ugh, I feel ill...

This is little different than SNKP's recent practice of licensing out KOF's characters for use in Chinese/Thai freemium games.

I don't think anything will ever top Steel Battalion and Fire Pro Wrestling's 360 announcements for me. Enter a thread as hyped as I can possibly be only to find out that they're both going to be Kinect and avatar XBLA shovelware. A few years later and I'm still bitter about it.

This doesn't even surprise me. In fact, I'd be a lot more surprised if Cave made a shooter for anything but mobile at this point.
