Hand Drawn Eternity’s Child Coming
September 11th, 2007 by Rajiv Ashrafi in Action, Nintendo DS, Wii
Altern8 sent out word that they have partnered with Luc Bernard, an artist/dark fairytale creator, to develop and publish Eternity’s Child for the DS and Wii.
The story of Eternitys Child and the orphan ‘Angel’ - the planet on which Eternity’s Child is set on. The planet was once filled with many living creatures and vast forests, however due to the pollution created by the habitants the icebergs melted and the whole planet was flooded and most of the creatures became extinct. The creatures without wings that were left became jealous of the ones with wings (that allowed them to survive the flooding), so the land creatures started murdering all the winged creatures until there was none left. To repopulate the world, many mechanical robots were created so that the world would not seem as empty as before, but most of those creatures got out of control and started attacking and destroying what was left.
The whole entire game will be hand drawn, with the animations done traditionally by hand frame by frame. Apparently, the soundtrack will be all orchestral and there will be songs like old Disney films. It will play like an interactive fairytale with two-player co-op mode available. The DS version, on the other hand, will be a 3D platform game and will not follow the storyline of the Wii version.
