For anyone wondering, this is the latest update I read in these comments from a user named "Elle Meine Hater" : "at the almost 50 ppl under this arguing if it’s cancelled or not: There has been an update with new screenshots in early december! The development team is working on final touches and the game has not been cancelled. They will inform the community if there is a set release date but there have been major delays due to covid since the power cut off their office and they had no chance to enter the building :)"
Yes, but I think the visuals are the really impressive part. I have other games with a similar excellent soundtrack but the pixel art here is a step further from anything I have seen before. Only hope the narrative and game mechanics to be at the same level, if that happens, probably this game will be a serious choice for indie of the year
I knew it felt super familiar for some reason. God I wish that series would come back on the switch. Star Force was okay, but I hated the perspective change.
Revisiting this after the news. I cant believe the release date is out now. We waited long boys, but september 16 is the day. 3+ years of work, and its finally gonna be released 😭😭
Same for my The Last Night, it’s being in my steam wishlist for years and it’s still TBA. You just get used to that trailer is just a video that means nothing
Must admit, this was the one game from the showcase that caught my eye. Loved the music. It really gave me Battle Network vibes. Will keep an eye on this
So one of the worlds greatest cartoons...with one of the worlds greatest video games If this isnt a 12/10 im gonna be surprised why it was only a 11/10
YAS! It's like Tekkonkinkreet meets Princess Mononoke. BTW can we just have a Tekkonkinkreet video game already? I'd play Black & White all day!!! \m/\m/
I'm hoping to either get a release date or some kinda announcement at the direct tomorrow, even a delay would be ok as long as some news about it comes up!
I saddens me they didn't show up in the last indie world of the year. Why did the marketing team drop this trailer so early before the game was even close to completion?
I'm not a huge fan of the combination of Pixel-art and 3d lighting in a game, but this game's pixel art is just so damned good it gets away with it. Also, it is interesting to see an Indie game from a non-Western developer (outside of the Japanese hobbyist scene responsible for games like _Touhou Luna Nights_ ) - the devs are based in Shanghai according to their website.
@@UniDeathRaven When it is done well (like here), sure. The problem is, a lot of games use it as a crutch, in order to paste over - and somewhat disguise - sub-par pixel-art (particularly 2D survival horror games). That, and I'm something of a pixel-art purist, and want games to live up to the heights of the late 90s (Symphony of the Night, Metal Slug III, etc.)
There's a fan made game that isn't finished yet that was called "Mother 4" but it was renamed to avoid copyright battles, however it's much closer to Mother 3. th-cam.com/video/-qtQWUF6-Co/w-d-xo.html
So chuckle fish just posted a few days ago. That the team is reaching the end of development and that they thank people for their patience. As the team had a hard time. But are looking foward to making a blog update really soon
I tried to find this game but I couldn’t. The release date said 2020 but not when. We are in almost December & not news about the game. It’s sad because the game looks fun.
My consolation is that if it's delayed, it's to make a better product. And to ensure that the game developers keep a normal-ish schedule and have actual lives. I think we're all a fan of both of those!
Get me this game already. This looks like a great game world, that art style is gorgeous and I'm so sold on this. Come on devs, give me a Christmas surprise.
Chucklefish is a Publisher, not a developer. They chose a specific type of game to publish and fix their name to. Although they are known largely for their successful publications of Starbound and Stardew Valley, they also have many bad games they have published as well.
@@AlmondHoneyOats They are a developer and a publisher. They published Risk of rain and Stardew Vally, but they did develop Starbound and Wargrove. Check out their website :)
I’m so excited for this coming to Switch! I didn’t even have a Switch but then I saw Eastward and I got a gaming computer for it. Then everyone was commenting “Switch, Switch, Switch etc” on the Chucklefish channel’s Eastward trailer. And now it’s coming to Nintendo, and now I got a Switch because of Eastward!
Bruh, I'm dying for this game to get a release date please. It looks so beautiful and I cant even imagine the type of adventure this game is gonna give us.
Absolutely in love with that box art at the end! I love it when franchises use a different marketing art style than what the gameplay can visually show (Earthbound, Celeste, Starfox)
I wonder when this will get to release? According to the FAQ the creator is an indie developer based in Shanghai, so we might be in for the long haul. Looks good though, so I'll wait...
Yup. Yup. I've had my eye on this game since it was announced due to its art style. Now that it's 2020, I can't wait to finally play it. This, and Oddity look absolutely amazing.
I hope they do a sequel in the style of the non pixel sequences. beautiful music, beautiful visuals. I hope the music quality will be constant throughout the whole game.

With games getting more and more detailed with the graphics it makes me really appreciate games that go retro with the pixel art.
Well retro pixelated games are kind of in these days with advanced gaming elements added
Is this the first pixel game you see in years? Most indies uses this style...not saying this one is bad, but it’s something I see almost everyday.
it's easier to make a pixel game look good and detailed than it is for a 3d game.
@@Razzlesnaps I'm aware. Back to my original statement. I appreciate the retro game designs.

Yes, maximize the awfulness...
Guy 2 , Nice try, but it doesn’t count. That’s a screen shot of the video about the game. You never see that during the actual game. :p
I didn't know I could feel nostalgia for something I've never even heard of
Omg same
It's like Chrono trigger meet gravity falls
I think it's the music that helps it feel nostalgic. Almost like a game or movie from one's own childhood.
@@EndosapiensMD
It's basicly Mother 3 (aka. Earthbound sequel) × Gravity Falls

With some Zelda

Oliver Falcó I can’t deny with what you are saying. Fact is, that both of them are very impressive. Can’t wait to get my hands on it!
It looks like Mother 3 but better.
Both are incredible 😍😍
This music takes me back to playing Mega Man Battle Network on my GBA
Joshua Jones // You took the words right out of my mouth. That was such an amazing and underrated series.
Yes! Agree.
I knew it felt super familiar for some reason. God I wish that series would come back on the switch. Star Force was okay, but I hated the perspective change.
Miss those games so much
Facts its like a staple of that series reminds me of a city or town when exploring as Lan

Well this seemed to creep up from hibernation. Looking forward to play this!
It looks amazing!
Almost 1 year later and it is still yet to be released
I literally came to this video thinking, "Do we have a release date yet?"
That's what happens with most of these games. Just a bunch of mock ups.
Same for my The Last Night, it’s being in my steam wishlist for years and it’s still TBA. You just get used to that trailer is just a video that means nothing
I mean, 2020 isnt over yet. Maybe it will come out
@@allenlo7147 i was actually wondering how many game trailers have nintendo released but none have an actual release date

And chuckling about as usual.
Cool Guy omg I bet he didn’t know! He’s gonna feel so silly when he realises 🤭 OMG
Yeah, i also like chucklefish! So much abuse with young devs makes a good game.
big oof
Must admit, this was the one game from the showcase that caught my eye. Loved the music. It really gave me Battle Network vibes. Will keep an eye on this
The Last of Us: Gravity Falls Edition
I love it
Hahah goddamn, that's exactly what I thought when I saw this trailer :P
I love that show.
So one of the worlds greatest cartoons...with one of the worlds greatest video games
If this isnt a 12/10 im gonna be surprised why it was only a 11/10
I was about to say, that miner John looks a lot like Joul.
Don't ever compare a beauty like Eastward with that borefest sobstory parent bounding simulator
This one caught my eye just as Sparklite and Ori.
I thought Spark looked good too!
This came in my recommendations now again, and i got destroyed after thinking its finally out
the art style reminds me of that movie Tekkonkinkreet.
Yeah i think that too, the colors and structures looks almost the same
reminded me of Stardew Valley
YAS! It's like Tekkonkinkreet meets Princess Mononoke. BTW can we just have a Tekkonkinkreet video game already? I'd play Black & White all day!!! \m/\m/

Me too ! This game looks great . Also waiting for Baldo , can't wait for both
September 16th!!!!
i return here all the time hoping that the game comes out soon
I really love this song :D
AAAAA YES I'VE BEEN FOLLOWING THIS GAME SINCE THEY ANNOUNCED IT I'M SO GLAD THEY WERE ABLE TO BRING IT TO SWITCH
Is it me or aren’t we already in mid 2020?
Bro the world got put on hold that year literally any game that released in 2020 was more than I'd expect.
Man. I remembered when Chucklefish only had 2 or 3 games developed. It's really impressive to see how much the scope of their studio expanded.
They aren't developing this, just publishing.
i don't know how many times i've replayed this trailer,, i mean the soundtrack?? i need the full version :((
If you're looking for it like I was, track name is 'Strange Quest' from the OST for this game.
I love the way this looks I'm super looking forward to it, it reminds me a lot of Stardew Valley
Daniela Navarro sameee ! First thing I thought!!
Didn’t the developers of this game also work in Stardew Valley? I am not sure though
I still hope this game will get released one day...
I'm hoping to either get a release date or some kinda announcement at the direct tomorrow, even a delay would be ok as long as some news about it comes up!
Reminds me a bit of Summon Night Swordcraft. Easily one of the best games I ever played on the GBA
I played that and the second one. Good games.
This game looks amazing. Imagine though, this art style for a first and second gen Pokemon game. You'd have my money
I saddens me they didn't show up in the last indie world of the year. Why did the marketing team drop this trailer so early before the game was even close to completion?
Why this remind me MOTHER 3? So hyped.
Yusei Fudo that's exactly what I thought! I am sure it was the original inspiration for this game!
Yeah but the combat gameplay in this is real time, not turned based. Graphics, definitely.
that's exactly what I thought
It's because the train
Yusei Fudo Why does this remind me of MOTHER 3?
2021, bring us this game!

4 years, I only just played this game last year. It's one of the best games of all time, even with some slight gaps in design.
It's like Mother 3, but bigger vibrant and SMAAASH-ing.
Tomorrow counts a year since this game has been announced for switch. I hope to play it soon 🤗 (trailer soundtrack still hypes me up)
It's been too long. I want to play this so bad!
That music track was really somethin else
Anyone after today's Indie World?
I can't wait for this and Baldo: The Guardian Owls~

My top 3 this indies are :
1. The Tourists
2. Eastward
3. Ori
Still says "Early 2020" on Nintendos site and 2020 is half over.
2020 is about to end. will this game ever release?
I am still waiting...
It's 2020 dude it could drop anytime.
Nope
The first time I watched this trailer that final chord gave me chiiiiiilllllssss
watching the trailer for the 40945 time
the artwork makes me want to learn game designing
This is kinda combination of Pokemon, Megaman, and Suikoden! This game could bring some good new experience!
No its just secret of mana in a modern setting
Wish this were releasing physical. I’d buy it in a heartbeat.
this is like a tribute to MOTHER series, when it comes out Nintendo just take my money.
This game looks absolutely gorgeous
Even though we got Ori, this game has me very, very excited. Hopefully it's early 2020.
This is personally one of my most anticipated titles of 2020! I can't freakin wait
So is this game ever coming out? I don’t mean to be pushy or anything I just don’t want to forget about it, I couldn’t imagine missing out on this
Pixpil recently posted details about the game and Chucklefish said it's almost done.
I hope they do a sequel in the style of the non pixel sequences. beautiful music, beautiful visuals. I hope the music quality will be constant throughout the whole game.
I’m still waiting
i wish if they could make new pokemon games with this graphic style & those colors it's gonna be Insane
Looks so good. Nintendo where is Mother 3???
Indies: We will give you something close to it baby.^_^
Does this music have a genre?! 8bit, 16bit, retro something?! I'm in love.
Celeste type of music
