Epic Mickey (see: not related to kingdom hearts)

[JH]

Some art for a game codenamed 'Epic Mickey' was recently released. The art itself looks nothing Kingdom Hearts related, however there has been talks about this image in particular:

People have speculated that the black objects circulating the bottom are Heartless, leading them to believe this is a Kingdom Hearts game, whether that be Kingdom Hearts III or another spin-off.

You can see the rest of the art for the game here:

This Looks Like Art From Warren Spector's "Steampunk" Disney Game - Steampunk DIsney - Kotaku

Those things at the bottom don't really look much like Heartless to me. :/ Though it's really hard to see what exactly they are though.

Indeed.

If it isn't a Kingdom Hearts game, it's still simply stunning. It's a shame concept art rarely looks like the finished concept.

to be honest, the small objects at the bottom do not look like
heartless, but rather houses (a village) that lay under a towering
staircase that lead to the castle evidently shown in the picture.

It does, especially when you compare it to this image:

Re: Disney Steampunk Art, Possible Kingdom Hearts

It looks a little bit to twisted to be a KH game. It´s almost macabre lol

Re: Disney Steampunk Art, Possible Kingdom Hearts

It's Kingdom Hearts IV.

Re: Disney Steampunk Art, Possible Kingdom Hearts

well wuddya know,
suddenly anything that has to do with a disney game
is quick to be subject to KH. That will not always be the case
if at all. Anyway, the concept of this seems fairly good, and
a little creepy seeing the mechanical goofy and all, but as far
as that, i'm interested to see some finishing results.

Director: We are creating a new game in which Mickey is left to save Minnie from the hands of Pete
and his malicious concubines

Fans: OMG! this must be KH!!

lol, you have to admit though that Disney doesnt make too many games in which the main protagonist isnt the main protagonist of one of their movies so I dont think its too crazy for people to think of the possibility of it being KH.

Re: Disney Steampunk Art, Possible Kingdom Hearts

A game that involves Disney that doesn't have the typical Disney looks is usually guessed to be Kingdom Hearts related nowadays.

Re: Disney Steampunk Art, Possible Kingdom Hearts

I think it looks good but sadly I don't think it's KH related. If anything it's most likely to be a spin off or side game.

Btw are they Steamboat Willie characters in the bottom picture on the Kotaku article?

 

[JH]

Re: Disney Steampunk Art, Possible Kingdom Hearts

Yes, the characters are from the older cartoons. Some more concept art:

Holy moly this game is beautiful.

Re: Disney Steampunk Art, Possible Kingdom Hearts

i'm sooooo gonna love this game.. <333333

Re: Disney Steampunk Art, Possible Kingdom Hearts

Rumor has it that it's for Wii.

Still in production though, which is a good thing. Was confirmed they were still working on it in an interview two months ago. Seriously doubt it's Kingdom Hearts though, the artist is a Western artist, and Square Enix is no where to be seen.

This looks disturbing o_o I´m pretty sure kids are gonna have nightmares after playing this.

Of course I´m still probably gonna end up buying it :3

Re: Disney Steampunk Art, Possible Kingdom Hearts

Most likely isn't KH-related, but those things do look a little like heartless (black body, yellow eyes, etc).

 

[JH]

Re: Disney Steampunk Art, Possible Kingdom Hearts

Apparently they're going to reveal it soon. For the Wii.

If it's not Kingdom Hearts, hopefully it's a side-scroller ala A Boy and His Blob. I don't think the Wii could portray this concept well in 3D.

Re: Disney Steampunk Art, Possible Kingdom Hearts

How is this a discussion that this is a Kingdom Hearts game? You can tell just from the article that it's not. Though the concept does look interesting. I'd bet my life on it that this isn't Kingdom Hearts.

Re: Disney Steampunk Art, Possible Kingdom Hearts

Noticed with the old characters are huge machines with the seven dwarfs faces on them. I think it will be very simillar to the original KH concept. Mickey going around to all the Disney worlds. Maybe they've all been distorted.

But yeah anyway I'm pretty sure it isn't KH so I think it should go to GVG.

EDIT: And theres thorns around that castle that highly resembles those seen in Sleeping Beauty. Matter of fact that castle looks like Sleeping Beautys Castle.
