WiiWare: New Preview of 'Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People' at IGN
The team over at IGN have been given another look at the upcoming Homestar Runner game for WiiWare. It's turning out to be quite the fun title, and works quite well with the Wii:
Players use the remote to aim a context-sensitive icon. Objects and people Strongbad can interact with are indicated by the reticule. Even though Strongbad is also coming out on PC, developer Telltale is building the game with the Wii in mind. While it plays similarly to Sam & Max, Telltale's other graphic adventure, certain features have been tweaked to be more console friendly. Instead of dialogue trees, a word bubble will appear above Strongbad's head with images representing possible choices. So instead of text reading "Tell me about the park," you'll see a picture of the park. It doesn't dumb the game down and, visually, it fits well with the world Telltale has created. Sometimes you'll have the choice of giving a "nice" or "mean" response, represented by an angel or devil.
It's meant to be coming out next month, I'm certainly interested in this title.
