There are 12 different enemy types in the game. The recruits are my favorite system, because it allows the player to mix and match their playstyle by creating new combos with their new call-in buddy. Accessories are little trinkets like rings or watches or earrings that each player can wear up to two of, and have some minor, long-term gameplay effects. JS: The Accessories and Recruits systems are new to Kunio-kun, right? What can you tell us about those systems?īR: The accessories system is not only adorable but it also strengthens the player with passive effects. You can also eat anything you buy, no matter how inedible it may seem. Items can be stored away so you can replenish your stamina and boost your stats.
There are some nods to the older games such as Spicy Chili, Cornish Hens, and various books. JS: Kunio-kun games have been well known for the integration of items and the in-game item stores, how are these implemented in River City Girls?īR: Items were super important to pull off in this game. They are separate but they come from the same universe. I liken them to Street Fighter and Final Fight at this point. They have become so entwined since their original arcade and NES releases, that their connective tissue has only become stronger over all these years. As far as Double Dragon, I feel like a River City game cannot exist without some reference to Double Dragon at this point. These are all the characters you love with our WayForward spin on them.
RIVER CITY GIRLS PC SERIES
JS: How does this game tie into to the Kunio-kun/River City series as a whole? Is it just aesthetics and style? Can you also elaborate on the Double Dragon tie-in for the game?īR: River City Girls is part of this world, but it’s also very much its own unique thing. Then we sprinkled in some RPG elements, like stat boosting and leveling up, so the player can feel more powerful as they progress through the story. We took everything we loved from various fighting games we grew up with and mashed them all together for this title. I grew up on a healthy diet of beat ’em up games and fighting games. Johnathan Stringer (RPGamer): Can you please give us a brief overview of River City Girls? What sets it apart from other brawler or beat ’em up-style games?īannon Rudis: River City Girls is an over-the-top, goofy homage to beat ’em ups in a flashy anime-style presentation. RPGamer got to interview Bannon Rudis of WayForward, the assistant director and combat designer of the game, about all things River City Girls.
