Mutant Mudds and Dementium developer Renegade Kid has revealed its new project – a 3DS Metroidvania game named Xeodrifter.
Due for digital release via the 3DS eShop, Xeodrifter is a 2D retro-themed title that uses NES-style graphics and a basic colour palette.
There’s no word yet on a release date or price.
The title began as a de-make of existing 3DS game Moon Chronicles, but eventually spawned into its own project, Renegade Kid designer Jools Watsham told GoNintendo.
“I am a huge fan of Super Metroid, Metroid Zero Mission, and Castlevania: Circle of the Moon, and have always wanted to develop a game in that sub-genre,” Watsham said.
“Xeodrifter is the story of an interstellar drifter traveling the stars on a mission of exploration. In this particular installment of the story, we join our nomad as he embarks on the exploration of small cluster of four planets.”
