Not actually that important
You're the one who said that "it looks exactly like that in 2D".
It doesn't then, so you should probably reformulate.

Jett Rocket II (3DS eshop - 60fps 3D) - First screens revealed
- Thread starter thegodsend
- Start date
I said that quoting someone who said "2d is 800x240 per eye" - we're talking about resolution, it's incredibly silly assuming I mean no matter which screen you're using to see that pic, it's going to look the exact same size as a 3DS screen.
I mean I even posted an example of a 800x240 pic (which of course is not going to be the exact same size on all monitors!), I can't believe it's not painfully obvious what I meant.

It was decent to good game.
I nice pick for those fond of the old N64 platformers and that maybe have kids to play with (the game is quite easy, collecting every cells in one time is the "hardest" part).
Graphics is fabulous and music is good.
It flew under my radar that the game was postponed because Shin'en wanted a more free-roaming approach for the 3D levels.
Game apparently is finished and is set to be released in Q3.
Old teaser (This month Shin'en will released the first trailer):

looks amazing but they really need to get some character artists hired as soon as possible,
they have so much talent elsewhere but if that's the best main character they can design then i feel sorry for the rest of the team.

I just really can't stand that character design.
it looks like a boy band member, so unfortunate given their clear talent for understanding hardware, i'd even say they can squeeze as much out of hardware as naughty dog can.
but that character........
i do not want to play as a member from one direction

They are clearly very technically talented. We'll see how the actual game is though. Like others said, their main character could look better or more unique.

Yeah...
They should probably consider designing a helmet of some kind that masks his face. That said, since the game has a cartoony look, they could get away with something with a lot more personality if they're going to show it.

It would be 1000% better if they just put a helmet on him.
Their environmental art is great, it's just their character designs that are bad.

I meant a helmet that covers the entire head like Samus or Master Chief
I dont even think the character designs as a whole are bad, the robots look great.
Jett should have been a goofy robot like the bad guys are

Eh he looks pretty unoffensive to me, I'm looking forward to this game. Shinen means quality.

Fun Fun Minigolf Touch and Art of Balance Touch were also excellent.
Disagree on fun fun.
Buy only if you really want a minigolf game and at the cheapest price possible.
Art of balance abd nano assaulr are two of the best game on eshop though.

I keep forgetting about these guys. Wonder if there'll be a FAST sequel.
They said in the interview they plan on showing their Wii U racing game (all but confirmed to be a FAST sequel) this fall.
Great interview.
It basically confirm that jr2 initially was a very different kind of game.
Probably leaning more on to be a 2d platform.
Speaking of 2d platform, people knows that often shinen work is derivative or homage other games.
On gba they developed a "yoshi island" kind of clone.

The impression that I get is that it started off as mostly a 2D platformer with some small Mario 3D Land type levels but they incorporated more open 3D levels and other types of 3D gameplay after they figured out how to get them to run at 60 fps.

Is it better than the original so far? I thought the first one would be a fun 3D Platformer, but it really wasn't.
Too short, easy and uninspired. Hopefully all these problems are remedied in the sequel.

Game looks decent, hopefully FAST is better than that though.
Hard to say about length (it seems meatier but I can't swear since I'm just at the beginning).
It still fell derivative as formula only that this time it is inspired by Super Mario 3D Land for the 3D levels.
Other levels play strictly 2D.
But again I can't judge it yet.

Played until stage 3
Not only is it awesome, it's also pretty challenging (from stage 3 on)!
Music is crack, and it looks superb in motion

Correction:
There are also 3D levels with more "free camera" compared to SM3DL.
Seems to me development started with 2D levels then went 3D with fixed cam ala SM3DL and for last went with more free 3D levels.

Played the first couple levels, very solid so far. Music is very chirpy.

Looks great, i think it is 8,99 and already available. I am looking forward to their next Wii U game.
