In his recent
mammoth sized Destructoid interview, Luc Bernard eluded to the fact that his upcoming game Eternity's Child has gained some additional game play elements in the process of making the jump from XBLA to WiiWare, but at the time he didn't get into the details of what those elements would be. Well, today the little French/English tease has finally put out, if only just a little.
Luc's latest (and perhaps greatest) Destructoid Community Blog contains info on not only a new playable character, but those new WiiWare specific game play mechanics as well. I just contacted Luc for some additional info on this development, and was told specifically by Luc to"Blog it right now, before Kotaku does! I just sent them an email" So forgive me if these seems rushed.
In Eternity's Child, you'll control the game's central character Angel with the analog stick on the Wii-Nunchuck. With the Wii-Remote, you will control an on-screen cursor, that big weird heart with wings. By pressing one of the buttons on the Wii-Remote (Luc didn't tell me which), you can signal to Angel's female friend shown in the pick below to throw (Luc's words, not mine) at what ever the heart shaped cursor is aimed at. The girl side kick will be at Angel's side through out the entirety of the game.
Luc, coy as always, is currently unwilling to tell us what this female co-protagonist's name will be, but I have a hunch that it'll be Rose. Don't ask me why. So in summation, Eternity's Child will allow for a sort of make shift co-op experience, not dissimilar that found in Super Mario Galaxy. One player could hold the Wii-Nunchuck to control Angel, the other the Wii-Remote to control the heart and "Rose". Not bad for a $5 game.
Oh, and it looks like Luc is also having a
little popularity contest for his characters right now. I personally think he's doing this to help him decide which of those characters will appear in an upcoming Luc Bernard game, or maybe even as a secret character in Eternity's Child. Just me guessing here folk. I promise. If you are at all interested in his games, drop Luc a comment or a suggestion. He listens to his fans. Trust me on this, I know from experience. Via

CHANGE!
Only on Destuctoid.
And Reaprar, it's not my job to debate with you, little buddy, and of course you have the right to be as dumb as you want. But I'm just saying, your constant " inightful critiques" of Luc's work, such "It's emo! You suck!" and "It sucks! You're Emo!" are totally worthless, especially seeing as you are not an artist yourself. They're are funny, don't get me wrong, but not because I'm laughing with you, but rather because I'm laughing at you. And I don't think I'm the only one.
But don't take it too personally. We all make jack asses out of ourselves occasionally.
Speaking of which, I'm off to fix this BBCode fail.

Seriously...what the fucking hell?
Hehe
Now that's what I'm talking about.
Fight Luc's gay attacks with titties!
But do we really need a C-blog about a C-Blog? I mean seriously? This is a tad ridiculous.
