This is their second title for Switch after Sushi Strikers which they were also a co-developer.

Did Nintendo solo the other entries? Indieszero are a great choice I feel for this.

 

[Fat4all]

can they draw Australia from memory?

cuz i sure fucking cant

 

[Madao]

this is the kind of game that i'd find really hard to see if different devs make a difference.

Yeah, they always specialized in more casual games. Brain Traning is certainly a decent fit if anything. I do wonder how much Sushi Striker was their design or if they just assisted only.

Concentration Training was codeveloped by Intelligent Systems despite them not listing it on their website

What im more interested to know is if the game is going to come out of Japan and if so, how will they adapt it especially that writing kanji mini game

 

[SinCityAssassin]

It's good they still got work after Sushido.

Occasionally I look at small game studios on Wikipedia and wonder how on earth they've stayed in business for over 20 years. This is definitely one of those times. What's their big money maker here?

It's already been confirmed for an EU release in early January. No word for North America yet though.

They are like one of the only game companies that follows me on Twitter.

PLAY THEATRHYTHM CURTAIN CALL

 

[QuixoticNeutral]

Any talk about Indieszero just serves to remind me of how badly the Switch audience that missed out on the Wii U/3DS years needs to experience NES Remix 1 and 2—particularly when the NES library is so readily accessible on the platform.

 

[srtrestre]

Very nice.

They made Theatrhythm alongside SE.

 

[fiendcode]

indieszero has never developed a game for a non-Nintendo console. They have done mobile and arcade stuff but never anything on Sega, PS or Xbox.

I really hope SQEX hires them to do Theatrhythm on Switch.

They're a small studio doing contract work. Their money maker is reliably securing new projects to work on. There really isn't much more to it.

 

[LeoDroid]

I also really hope they would do another Theatrhythm, it's such a great game, and there's many fantastic soundtracks to use

Both of the Game Center CX games are goddamn works of art, and it's a tragedy we didn't get any proper ones beyond the first two (there's apparently a third one by a different studio that's trash). If anything they're beyond overqualified for a Brain Training game, hahah.

God I would kill for a proper Retro Game Challenge 3, or even a compilation / remix of the first two. Some of the games are among the best retro-style games ever created.
