The Nintendo 3DS developer event has begun and it opened with Nintendo unveiling their latest IP known as "Code Name S.T.E.A.M." The title is a steampunk game that apparently takes place in London. It's a turn based strategy RPG being developed by Hitoshi Yamagami and Intelligent Systems (Paper Mario, Advance Wars, Fire Emblem, etc.) According to the Nintendo twitter, "Mr. Yamagami wants to 'find a way to introduce more people to strategy games & have them fall in love w/ them the way I have' ". |

A bit more info: -Takes place during Lincoln's term -Movement on field limited by a 'steam meter' - steam pipes also used for navigation purposes -It's turn based with action elements (this reminds me of the Mario RPG games). The game uses action elements from shooters to enhance movement and attacking -The game has a cel-shaded, American comic book style And i'm hearing stuff about steampunk motorcycles and aliens, but don't quote me on those. Nevertheless, it sounds like Intelligent Systems has hit that point where they just flipped tables and said, "Screw it, let's go with the craziest concept possible!" EDIT: Off of the Nintnedo twitter: The fighters in #CodeNameSTEAM run on steam. Fighters have boilers and they have to pull from a limited amount of steam to perform attacks. So, you have steam rather than MP? Intriguing . . . Edited by RPGZero, Jun 11 2014, 05:41 PM.

This is an awful lot to take in between this thread and what Hobbes posted in the E3 thread. Sounds intriguing but yeah it's hard to picture in my mind without any visuals right now. |

I really want to see it for myself as well. More News: -Art was inspired by the works of Jack Kirby and Bruce Timm -Aliens are based off of creatures from the Lovecraft mythos |

Polygon has some screens: http://www.polygon.com/2014/6/11/5802174/code-name-steam-nintendo-3ds-shigeru-miyamoto Don't mind the art style, but I'm definitely more of a Fire Emblem purist |

Not really at all what I was picturing but it looks like it could be good. More American goodness too. |

Huh. Sounds interesting. The bit about the steam bar reminds me of games like Sakura Taisen and Valkyria Chronicles. |

haha yeah looks like. Wife might be shutting shop though, so I may not need to actually write anything up. Good thing it's Intelligent Systems though - automatic interest there How many blogs out there are dedicated to Steampunk games anyway? |
