koROBO - a new game from Chibi-Robo creators



Tiny Wonder Studio, which includes developers from the oiginal Chibi-Robo series have revealed koROBO, a new game for current gen consoles and PC. Crowdfunding campaigns are due to begin on both Kickstarter and Campfire shortly.

Set in a modern day apartment in Brocklyn, New Yock City, the game involves controlling a small robot named koROBO who helps around the house, solves problems and interacts with local residents. The solar powered koROBO can be upgraded by completing challenges and collecting items.

Aw shame, I wanted a new Chibi-Robo game, not this.

Also, Brocklyn? I thought it was "Brooklyn" or something...

The previous game reportedly flopped, the original Devs shut down and the games were published by Nintendo, presumably the latter owns the rights.

In a situation like this a crowdfunded spiritual successor isn't a surprising outcome.

We still have the original Chibi-Robo on the GameCube, at least.

I LOVE CHIBI ROBO but something about this looks off.

Is it just a mock up or a pre pre pre pre pre alpha? It looks very uncanny and odd.
No doubt this is the Unreal engine. Because the Unreal engine is the ugliest engine ever. Every game released on that engine looks like crap.
