A totally crazy adventure! The South African developer Robot Wizard has announced that it will bring Jengo to the Nintendo Switch after a successful crowdfunding campaign.
A release date is not yet known.
About Jengo
Well… There’s this fella that’s into games, so into games that he brushes Contra aside without losing a life, knows exactly where the secret passages are and where the loot is stashed without even phoning a hint line… A man from another time…
A time before every gamer tried to be a stream celebrity, before every gamer could shout on a forum about how they knew better than the guys who made their favorite games in the first place, a time when gaming was about gaming (and sitting glued to the screen during Summer holidays)… This is a story about a gamer lost in modern times. His name is Jeff.
Elsewhere, beyond the realm of the real world, is a lonely place at the edge of the Pixelverse. A dumping ground for the Nobody-folk who were almost somebody – but have long lost their dreams at a drinking hole in the middle of the desert, in the middle of nowhere.
Little did they know is that all they needed was a hero… Sadly, considering the nature of forgotten places, no such hero ever came by, so they’ll have to settle on a gamer instead. Jeff finds himself warped into a world full of forgotten game creations. A place packed with all the Player 3’s that nearly hit the big time, didn’t and then got on with it…
Jengo is currently being developed for Nintendo Switch.
