The Studios Behind Monster Boy Are Teaming Up Once More For An "Even More Ambitious Project"

FDG has been one of the most dedicated publishers to release their games on Switch. Their releases so far have been a lot of fun to play.

I am super excited. I never finished monster boy (I didn't even get the human transformation yet). However, this game is a real treat and you can tell it was developed with a passion. Look forward to seeing what they come up with!

Monster Boy is just AWESOME, so I have high expectations with their next project, They have all my attention.

The more remaster of forgotten classics, the better!

Monster Boy is absolutely one of the best games on Switch!

Monster Boy is one of my fave games on the Switch. Can't wait for what's next.

Bring it on, whatever it is! Loved Monster Boy.

Great game! Enjoyed it a lot!

I've heard some great things about this game. I'll give the demo a shot sometime this week for sure.

@PikaPhantom you should, it IS an awesome game you will enjoy for sure. The only issue is the price lol

I loved their Monster Boy game, so I'm very excited for whatever they have in store.

Of course Monster Boy is amazing. I know because I played it myself and I had a blast.

I can't wait to see their next project. Same or different, I have faith for these guys.

I got 100% completion in Monster Boy & enjoyed every moment of it. It's a great game.

I hope its a Jellyboy remake.

I’m currently playing Monster Boy on PS4 and thoroughly enjoying it. I will definitely be keeping a beady eye on anything they announce.

The Monster Boy demo actually put me off from buying the game. I really didn't like it, it felt cheap and unpolished. I loved the Wonderboy remaster and Shantae and the Pirates Curse too.

These guys are talented. I'm on board for whatever they're working on next!

This is great news. It seems a lot of smaller games do extremely well on the switch

It starts out that way and then hooks it’s teeth into you. There’s a possibility, of course, you just won’t like it.

@OorWullie Oh mate I bet you cop heat for this opinion eh lol

Meh, I can’t see a rational fan of the game not recognizing that it has some off-putting qualities to it at first.

I was super excited for it originally and not only pre-ordered but also pre-ordered another copy as a gift for a friend. I really liked some aspects of Monster Boy and there was definitely a lot of care that went into it. But sadly for me there were parts that were too frustrating to be enjoyable — if the timer was just a little longer or a jump or other move didn't have to be so precise and left a little more room for error than it would have been really great, or there was some really weird combination of steps that was required with no real clue provided, especially irksome when it involved elements I thought were just background. I've gotten pretty far in the game (already a human again) but there have already been a few times when I basically stopped playing for a while because it wasn't enjoyable any longer — although I really wanted it to be. I am hopeful that perhaps they've heard other comments like this and this will make their next entry that much better. Looking forward though to see what they will come up with. I would add that I would have actually preferred a little less artistic polish in return for more tested gameplay thru the sections I mentioned above, but that's my opinion.

Monster Boy was amazing, so I can’t wait for their next game. One of my favourite games on the Switch so far, you can tell they put a lot of effort in, and I especially love how the characters move using traditional animation and not just moving body part pieces, it makes it feel that much more polished.

I just got Monster Boy yesterday, it's on a slight sale. 20% or something like that. Fun so far, it's absolutely beautiful.

It they're reviving another SEGA IP, hopefully it's Shinobi.

I thought Monsterboy was wonderful. Tough in some spots but overall a great tribute to the Wonderboy games.
I really hope whatever they are working is a long dormant SEGA IP. I personally would love to see a new take on both Altered Beast and Golden Axe.

That’s great news I loved all the hard work this group poured into monsterboy just an incredible game! No idea what it could be but I’m very excited!

Fantastic. I love that game.

@robr What didn't you like?

@Sun-WuGoku

10 months ago. So, my memory is hazy. Something to do with the graphics taking getting used to. But that’s about it for me, personally. For others not familiar with the series (Dragons Trap, specifically) or not familiar with action-rpg platformers (“metroidvania”) I could see someone getting frustrated with the kinds of things I was already anticipating (starting off weak, getting transformed into the pig). You could apply half of that to any game of it’s type. Throw in the animal transformations and I could see how that would throw off newcomers.
