Project H.A.M.M.E.R.
This is a very original game who´s idea came up after we´ve decided on the Wiimote. ”One thing that people always like is surprisingly to smash things... Why not turn it into an idea with the Wiimote?” one developer thought. And Project HAMMER is what came out of that idea.
The controls are very simple and intuitive. You move around the character with the nunchuk and you swing a large hammer around with the Wiimote. The character, by the way, is a human with some robotic gear trying to get rid of robots that are taking over the world. To do that you need to smash robots to peices and a car or two that happen to be in the way get crushed too!
The areas you fight through are pretty unique too. It´s mostly in cities with loads of interesting robot devices and things to crush. But it´s greatly varied. As you come away from the cities and out in the open you see that the robots in secret are building factories and keep humans away from seeing it. It´s your call to stop the robots.
You hammer follows you the entire game, it follows the exact moves of the Wiimote and you can even twist it around. As you go you find different powerups like one that makes the hammer heaver, one that makes in capable of giving electric jolts and one with spikes. It´s amazing to see how different objects react to the different powered hammer. When you have spikes things get stuck and you can penetrate glass and see and hear them shatter as you thrust the Wiimote into the window and violently twist it to break the glass.
This game also contains lots of different puzzles. You have to use different power ups to smash different switches and doors and on some targets you are give subtly hints of a special direction to twist the hammer in order to complete the challenge. But the core of this game is the appreciation for destruction that we all carry. And we have found a surprisingly creative outlet for it! Be creative by being destructive – that´s certainly something new. Because you do get lots of excersise while playing this game.
This first Project H.A.M.M.E.R is only the first in a new series of games. This is a new franchise. We plan on releasing further games in this franchise. It´s one of those many games that can only be apprectiated on a Wii. Because how fun is it really to turn a joystick left an see a hammer move on the screen? Not that funny. The Wiimote makes that simple move very satisfying and entertaining. The built-in speaker in the Wiimote is also creatively used in this game. Hit and object and klank! you hear the hammer hit the object and it also shakes to give you the impression of being in the game. And it works. It does feel like you are the very character on screen when you´re frantically smashing around in an atempt to destroy the robots before the imprison you with other rebels.
