“We’re really just getting started with the world design, and what you see in the demo from the first half of the game are the more ‘traditional’ elements,’ San Fillipo explained. All the more so if you grew up with the originals. It helps that the basics of Star Fox, from the flight mechanics to the yapping, excitable animals, are cool as hell. Once you get the basics of what made Star Fox so much fun working at this level, you have a strong base on which to build the world you’d like to make. The demo is more of a proof of concept than a solid look at what the game will be like at launch, but that proof of concept is really all I needed. The ships look and move like something you’d see in an updated Star Fox game, and the combat evokes the same cross of Star Wars-style runs through giant capitol ships and Zaxxon-inspired runs across a planet’s surface or through space. What’s clear from my time with the demo is that the fundamentals are there. He put it like this: He’ll be happy if Whisker Squadron has the same relationship to Star Fox that Spelunky has to Super Mario Bros. So on one hand, we want to fill that void and give Star Fox fans something they’ll love, but we’re not shying away from trying new things, and it’s tough to describe that goal succinctly.” We even have procedurally-generated bosses, which I think is virtually unheard of in video games. “We really want to take this to new and interesting places using procedural generation and more tactical choices that you’ll make with each run. “I think the toughest thing has been finding our own identity with this game apart from its obvious inspirations,” San Fillippo told Polygon. While the game is still early in production and its current lack of optimization means that it often runs at the same frame rate as the original Star Fox, it was clear that San Fillippo and company managed to capture at least the basic look and feel of the original game. Building on a classicįlippfly released a demo of Whisker Squadron for the current Steam Festival. Now, thankfully, fans can play a very early version of the game for themselves. That was back in March of 2020, and the team has been busy ever since. He spent a week making the prototype, and soon it became his full-time project. It got 527 likes, which isn’t exactly going viral, but it was enough to show there was interest. qzFfQnReKt- Aaron San Filippo March 29, 2020 Ok I probably shouldn't tempt myself like this, but is this a mashup you'd like to see? If I get 200 likes on this tweet, I will drop everything I'm doing and spend a few days making a StarFox-inspired prototype with the Race The Sun engine.
