Awesome! Is this the first fully 3D Kirby game released, aside from that racing game that no one cared about?
I've been waiting for this. :D Are those screens with all those characters stacked on top of each other an indicator of multiplayer, or some kind of multiplayer minigame? Maybe all players will stay on the same screen at once (as opposed to split screens).
Quote:Would have looked a lot better cel-shaded, though.
Indeed, but it still looks bright and cartoony enough to me.
I really ought to get around to buying Kirby 64 one of these days...
The camera angles make it a little hard to tell. There are some screens in there that definately make it look like a sidescroller, but the others aren't so clear. Maybe it will have some 3D parts to it?
These screens make it look 3Dish. Admittedly, though, there are more screens that make it out to be a sidescroller. Ah well. I'm okay with that. It's still Kirby, so it will still probably rock.
Well it can still be stuck to a flat track in those screens. But who knows, maybe they did mix 2d gameplay with 3d gameplay. That would be weird though.
I'd say that those look like '2d path passing through a 3d environment', like Kirby 64 or Goemon's Great Adventure. Look at the one with the two ape monsters, Kirby and both of them are on a line... and in the last one, the lining up of kirby and the shot leads me to believe, when you also look at the other shots, that this is definitely 2d gameplay. Which I am completely fine with... I'm just hoping that this game is better than Kirby 64. :) That game, while good, dissapointed me...
