New Wonderboy III game with yours truely :)

BGOllie

soooo . I've known this for a while but I was under NDA but it's official now so I can tell
There's a new Wonderboy III game in the making and I've been commissioned for a few tracks to feature in the game by FDG Entertainment (covers of the original game)

Check out the teaser and remastered version of monster vilage & I'll be working on two more for the game https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10153067121626151&set=vb.229374546150&type=3&theater

I'll also be included in the game as an NPC with a few quests .


Wonderboy III was my favourite game for the master System and being part of of a new opus is just awesome

They've the website just up http://www.monsterboy.com/ ... not mad about the "Wizard of booze" bit thing though ...

Doge

Congrats!

The game art is lovely looking too.

Doesn't look half bad and looks like it has rare non-crap illustrator art from that screenshot.

Do you know (or can you say) if any of the old Westone staff are working on it?

BGOllie

yep. Ryuichi Nishizawa is and some other guys.
FDG got all the assets from Westone

Holy crap, that's amazing! Well done.

Can we all be NPCs? :pac:

BGOllie

I'll ask

Congrats LongZ! Excellent news.

Absolutely loved Wonderboy on the C64 and IV was a cracking game too. Presumably "Booze" refers to a location rather than the beverage though? :pac:

CiDeRmAn

That's some amazing news there, well done, congrats and a whole lot of other fair play type phrases!
Probably the biggest deal since O1s got his name on the Pier Solar manual!

Jack burton

Myrddin

Amazing stuff, & you're the perfect man for the role

BGOllie

yeah it's pretty cool. I was given the choice in npc looks too

I think I chose...wisely

here's a few shots I can share (there's other stuff, but apparently I can't share that yet)

fair play to you, but you're not the first Irishman in a video game

Awesome news!

Was 3 Wonderboy in Monster Land, or Dragons Trap? I enjoyed both, but Monster Land is probably one of my favourites ever!

BGOllie

it's a "follow up" to Dragon's Trap, with the main character transforming into different animals. Dragon's trap was my favourite game on the master system so I'm a kid all over again these days.

Let's just hope it doesn't all go to his head, he is French after all, could go all Napoleon on our ass, start taking over, ruling and stuff, making us eat crepes and drink wine at every meal.... Actually on second thoughts....
