With Dementium released, Renegade Kid prepares for its next DS game
Life after The Ward
Appropriately released on Halloween in North America, scary first-person shooter, Dementium: The Ward, is only the starting point for US developer Renegade Kid. Its next project (proposed for DS and Wii) has already been picked up US boutique publisher Mastiff.
Codenamed Project M, little is known about the game other than the fact Renegade Kid promises it will offer "high-quality 3D visuals, intuitive controls, real-time lighting, and dynamic audio".
"Renegade Kid has proven that the DS is not just a platform for kiddie games," adds Bill Swartz, 'Head Woof' of Mastiff. "With skillful use of audio and controls, the developer created a truly creepy experience in Dementium: The Ward. We've seen enough of their latest project to know that they have much more in store."
Although not particularly well-known, Mastiff has been previously been involved in localising Japanese games (most notably Gurumin: A Monstrous Adventure on PSP) so this will be something of a departure for the company. At this stage, it's not yet known if there will be a dedicated European publisher for Project M, however.
