Treasure doing a 2d game on X360?

A 2D game eh? I wonder how much work it would take to release a game with sprites intended for a resolution of 1280x720? Seems like it could be difficult...
 
"...we take pride in developing our games with an elite and dedicated staff, which is small, so it will take longer to develop an Xbox 360 title,"
It does seem that the resolution will cause them to take a bit longer when developing a 2D game. A Treasure developed Gradius sequel on 360 would be absolutley brilliant.
 
As long as it's the Gunstar/Radiant/Ippo/Guardian side of Treasure and not the Stretch Panic side. :)

But yeah, I was psyched when we found out.
 
Do you know how crisp a 2D game would look in HD?? Man, i would kill for a game like the original Rayman or Astal in EXTREME high Def and Disney like animation...drool...

Yaknow what we need a sequel for next gen. systems-In the Hunt. High resolution mayhem with plenty of sprites all over the screen. But ummm-I'd prefer they added slowdown,just so that I could avoid all that shit coming at me.:)

But please-No 3D this time around. Sub Rebelion was fun but I want it to be in 2D.
 
I'm hoping that it will be a 2d game of such insane proportions that it will even slow down the XBOX360 hardware.

That would be sweet.

Is a sequel so much to ask for? ):
 
"There is no major difference in terms of gameplay for the games that we develop regardless of whether it is for console or handheld because they are all based on 2D action,"
Reading is fun!
 
OMG! How fucking cool is that? Please...I hope it's something in the vein of Dynamite Headdy, Mischief Makers, or Rakugaki Showtime...something weird and cool. But I'd be lying if I said that I didn't want it to be a full on remake/sequel to Guardian Heroes...

Shake shake!

I doubt it's that, though.

The latest Edge has an interview with Treasure, and it mentions the night team are working on something traditional(although no more details than that) as well as the possibility of a version of Ikaruga, whatever that entails.
 
"Help me Mariiinaaaaa!"

its called Advanced Guardian Heroes, and it is good.
 
why would it take longer because its higher res? Do the treasure artists have to create their images by connecting single pixels with a pair of tweezers?

Surely they'd draw using a tablet or by hand and scan, or many other ways.

And anyway, I don't expect it to be full 2D, more like ikaruga/Gradius - 3D objects but with 2D interaction

It might take longer to create a game using the level of insanity they can acheive with a 360, but thats another thing.
 
IGN: It's been announced that you're making Xbox 360 games, and we've heard some buzz that your first game for the platform will be 2D. Can you tell us what you can do with 2D games on a powerful system like Xbox 360?

Maegawa: Your information is incorrect.
Seems like they're not making a 2D game for 360 afterall.
 
Can't wait for their great talents:

Treasure will put XBOX360 power on fire just like Sega megadrive/genesis.
-Guardian heroes next
-Gunstar heroes next
-new shooter
-etc....

From the same IGN interview...

For next generation systems, including Xbox 360 and others, we'd do 2D with polygons -- that is, the visuals are 3D, but the game play is 2D.

The information that they were making a 2D game for X360 is incorrect - it's 3D with 2D gameplay.
 
Imagine...with the power of xbox360...Guardian heroes =no slowdown (see 32-bit(sega saturn) with lots of slowdown)
=====beat 'm up heaven :D
can't wait

I could go without 2D games for the rest of my life. :)

It's cool that fans of 2D are getting something they want though.
