Yves MakhoulLeaked concept art! "Steampunk" Mickey
August 2nd 2009 00:53
CVG reports on some anonymously provided details regarding a possible Wii exclusive.
The game is code named Epic Mickey and it's being worked on by the guy who brought us Deus Ex, Warren Spector at his Junction Point studio.
As it's a Wii exclusive, it'll be using the Wii-mote in it's own special way. Sketchy details have surfaced that you'll be "painting your way" through the levels. Either drawing, etching or erasing whole parts as you go. Similar to Capcom's Okami, but probably less Zelda like and more Mario like.
What about the story?
Well for old-skool Disney fans, this will tickle your fancy. It supposedly involves "old Disney characters" who're envious of Mickey's consistent fame and fortune over the last 70 odd years, when they too were once popular.
Does Osward the Lucky Rabbit come to mind?
Well he should, look at the second picture.. that's his face right there drawn on the space craft.
Needless to say, this is all very exciting and if Mr Spector is going to continue on this surreal path, he may just have a similar emotional response from fans as Square-Enix does with the Kingdom Hearts franchise.
Watch this space for more and check out the pics below.
