So far this game had a pretty patchy and unlucky developing cycle and I was easy with my words, so to say. The Swindler was already in development in 2011, but the father of the project called Dan Marshall was simply not able to put the game elements together in a way to make the game enjoyable enough, and so he left his project behind… until last October, when he announced a revival basically.
The game is dubbed a combination of Spelunky and Deus Ex, and that’s a very interesting concept – it’s simply a platformer with stealth. Curve Digial has a very promising project in their hands… hopefully the end result will show this as well! It’s coming to consoles, so The Swindler will be out on PS4, PS Vita and PS3 as well sometimes later this year – my bet would be Fall 2015…
