Sharpen your weapons: Swords & Soldiers is coming!
Ronimo Games announces their studio and the first competitive strategy game for Wii Ware: Swords & Soldiers.
UTRECHT, THE NETHERLANDS August 15, 2008 The developers of the original version of de Blob announce their new game studio Ronimo Games and their first title: Swords & Soldiers.
Ronimo Games is founded by seven developers in Utrecht, the Netherlands. As students the team was responsible for the original pc game de Blob. Being an innovative and fun game, de Blob became popular on the internet and was eventually picked up by THQ. The publisher bought the IP and will soon release the new version of de Blob for Nintendo Wii.
Fabian Akker, one of the co-founders: de Blob was the eye opener for us, that we can make cool games and function as a good team. The game definitely gave us the opportunity to start our own company.
The team is developing a new game for Wii Ware: Swords & Soldiers. Swords & Soldiers is a sidescrolling real time strategy game, in which three distinct factions battle for the powers of the gods. The game will feature a single player campaign and a competitive splitscreen multiplayer mode as well as several other game modes. Three screenshots are included with this press release.
Akker: We always dreamed of designing an RTS and when Wii Ware came out we immediately figured that this was our chance.
Swords & Soldiers will be the first competitive strategy game on Wii Ware and is scheduled for European, Australian and American release in Q4 2008.
