Eternity’s Child Still Coming to WiiWare but with Improvements

Back when Eternity’s Child was announced for the PC, it was also announced that the game would be headed to WiiWare sometime before Christmas 2008. Well, the holiday is almost upon us and no word about Eternity’s Child heading to the Wii was anywhere to be found. That is, until WiiWare World got official word from publisher Alten8 that the game is indeed still coming. However, there is still no set release date.
Alten8 is currently in the process of recoding the game to fix some of the issues that were prevalent in the PC version. The creator of the game, Luc Bernard admitted in the comments section of WiiWare World that while there were indeed issues with the PC version, the WiiWare port will be different because Alten8 has “redone the game mechanics and changed the controls in a good way. [It] basically controls now like a normal platformer. Alten8 have been spending months making a good control scheme and also redesigning levels, so the both products will only share the name and graphics.”
That is great news, because all things considered, it is probably one of the prettiest games out there which is only a testament to Luc’s enormous artist talent and creativity. Luc is a super nice guy, and I wish him the best of luck with the revamped version of Eternity’s Child.
In the meantime, you may wish to check back with us often because Alten8 will eventually set a release date and you won’t wanna miss out.
