Eternity's Child coming to Wii

According to a new press release, a game called Eternity's Child is to be launched on Wii. The game's creator Luc Bernard has cut a deal with publishers Alten8.

Eternity's Child is done in the style of a dark fairytale. Some interesting details about the Wii version:

  • The game's artwork is drawn by hand.
  • Animations also hand drawn, frame by frame.
  • Orchestral soundtrack throughout, with some songs included.
  • Two player co-op mode included.

There's also a short video available:

Personally I like the art style, but the gameplay shown off in that video didn't look too great.

Holy crap what an AMAZING soundtrack! This game would be worth playing just to listen to it.

Interesting. The artwork is interesting, as well as the music, but when it comes to the gameplay, well. Do I need to say anything?

Looks like one of these cheap flash games that are less fun than eating crap out of a toilet.

I love video game music. Unfortunately, there is almost nothing in the way of graphics or 3Dness.

The gameplay looked like it was from a cheap downloadable computer game. Great music though not really worth playing on the Wii.

Music awesome, artwork awesome, gameplay sucks. Cheap knock-off of early mario games. All you get is a hammer? Not on my wish list for sure.

Outstanding music. Probably the the best game music since the Kingdom Hearts soundtrack came out (oh, the composer, Yoko Shimorima is arranging some music for Brawl). Wow, I'm totally blown away by how much artwork is done to create this game. Fantastic. The gameplay is basically like Donkey Kong Junglebeat without the bongos. The gameplay video probably showed, like, the first level? If this game is cheap (I mean, less than $40 cheap), I will get this game.
