Whatever happened to GunValkyrie?

I can't possibly be the only one who loved that game, I thought it was worthy of a sequel. It had potential, damnit!

Come to think of it, I haven't heard of anything from Smilebit as of late, what happened to them?

They got swallowed up along with the other in-house Sega studios.

GunValkyrie was a good game with good art design brought down to mediocrity by a completely ridiculous control scheme. I bought it mainly due to the Panzer Dragoon music accompanying the early trailers. Pretty, though.

Supposedly it was originally designed as a Dreamcast game where you'd use the controller and light gun in conjunction. Unless they came up with that one after the fact to explain why the control is ball hair.

Either way, I remember being all pumped for it then quitting in frustration after the second or third stage. I picked it up a couple of times since the initial disappointment just incase there was some subtle magic I missed, but it turns out that there wasn't. It just sucks.

I know a guy who really likes it.

I didn't like it so much. I thought I would, but I didn't.
