    Eternity's Child Creator Calls It Quits On Calling It Quits

    Last month, Eternity's Child creator Luc Bernard announced on his official blog that he was leaving the video game business. "I've got enough problems in my personal life to do another game after Eternity's Child," Bernard wrote. Wrong! Luc Bernard has now apparently told game site Wiiware World that he's quit quitting. Besides announcing that Eternity's Child won't see a WiiWare release until later this year, Bernard is working on Eternity's Child 2: Retro Child, a WiiWare title slated for mid-2009. Eternity's Child 2: Retro is based on the cancelled GBA game he was working on and uses traditional side-ways Wii-mote held, button pushing controls. Development for this title is already underway.

    Eternity's Child Creator Calls It Quits

    Eternity's Child creator Luc Bernard is leaving the video game business. In a post on his official blog, Bernard explains that the stress involved "kind of made me ill and become a alcoholic", and so following chapters 2 & 3 of EC for the PC and the WiiWare version, he will continue his work in graphic novel form instead. The video game industry has proven too harsh a mistress. More »

    Eternity's Child Review - Pretty Hate Machine

    From the moment I first laid eyes on Eternity's Child I was expecting something special. An ambitious little title from artist Luc Bernard, the story concept captivated me just as much as the artwork. Flooded planet and mechanized animals aside, Eternity's Child was the simple story of a boy seeking acceptance in a world that had no place for him. Of course many things have changed since that initial story. Main character Angel found a winged girlfriend, the game was announced as a PC and WiiWare title, and a dual-character control system was revealed, but it was still the same concept I initially fell for, wasn't it? Will Angel find the acceptance he so desperately seeks, or should gamers turn a blind eye to his plight? Hit the jump and weigh his fate. More »

    Hands On With Eternity's Child

    I got a chance late last week to get my hands on an early build of the PC version of Luc Bernard's Eternity's Child, coming soon to PC and WiiWare, and while the build was a bit too early to forge lasting impressions of the game I can indeed say that it is in fact a game, and Luc Bernard isn't just a figment of my imagination as I had long suspected.

    Eternity's Child Gameplay Explained

    I told you he'd email us again! Luc Bernard is back with gameplay details for his upcoming WiiWare title Eternity's Child, including information on the little winged girl who recently joined our hero Angel in the screenshots. EC is an action platformer controlled using both the Wiimote and the nunchuk. Angel maneuvers the level using the nunchuk, while the Wiimote controls that little flying heart we've seen in all of the screenshots. Using said heart as a targeting device, the girl helps Angel out by shooting at enemies. As you can imagine, the mechanic lends itself well to co-op, with one player controlling Angel and the other sadistically letting him die over and over again while giggling. I need better gaming buddies. Keep your eyes peeled over the next couple of weeks, as Luc's email teases an impending gameplay trailer. More »

    Eternity's Child Meets A Girl

    Eternity's Child creator Luc Bernard needs to hire himself a PR firm. If he could take half the time he spends sending us updates and apply that towards creating games we'd be up to our armpits in quirky, artsy goodness. His latest email reveals a new playable character in the WiiWare game, and this time it's a girl! A nameless, winged girl who apparently you control at the same time as the main character Angel. Now I was under the impression that the story revolved around Angel - a winged being stripped of his wings at birth to protect him from a society that would kill him - searching for someone like him. If this new character is with him the whole game, isn't his mission accomplished? I'm guessing she is a spirit of some sort. A guardian Angel for Angel? All will be revealed next time Luc emails us.

    Exclusive: Eternity's Child Creator Attempts to Tackle the Holocaust

    Luc Bernard, the mind behind the upcoming Wii-Ware title Eternity's Child is already hard at work on a new and what is sure to be a very controversial game or the DS. Imagination Is The Only Escape is the story of a young Jewish boy living in France during the occupation by the Nazis in World War II. In order to escape the horrors around him, he imagines a fantasy land that becomes the basis of the game's world. The adventure platformer will attempt to educate players on the atrocities experienced by many children during the time of the Holocaust. More »

    Eternity's Child Looks, Sounds Prettier

    Luc Bernard's hand-drawn fairy tale Eternity's Child has been through a lot of changes since it was first slated for Xbox Live. It's since moved first to the Wii and then finally to WiiWare, where things seem to have stabilized a bit for our wingless friend Angel, at least platform-wise. Bernard recently dropped us a line to show us the new look for Angel, who now looks a bit sleeker, sporting buckles on his boots and gloves as well as a pelvis, which is always a good thing to have on hand. Luc has also pointed us towards Sean Beeson's official soundtrack for the game, which coupled with the visuals we've already seen could make Eternity's Child one of the most beautiful titles WiiWare has to offer.

    Eternity's Child Coming to WiiWare

    WiiDS.co.uk is reporting that cartoonist Luc Benard has announced that his surreal game, Eternity's Child, will be available for WiiWare download sometime in Q2 of 2008. It will set you back 500 Wii points to get a peek in side the beautifully twisted mind of Mr. Benard and his wild cast of characters. More news from Mr. Benard on other projects are expected to come next week. More »

    New Eternity's Child Character Revealed

    In a world ravaged by global flooding, where the winged are hunted and killed by the wingless and murderous mechanical animals roam the land, who can an orphan with amputated wings look to for companionship as he journeys to find others like himself? Luc Bernard has revealed a new playable character for Eternity's Child, currently in development for the Wii. Angel will be joined on his quest by Rani, pictured above in the sketch sent to us by the artist himself. Rani is a boy who wants to be a girl, who joins up with the game's main protagonist Angel, helping each other reach their respective goals. Definitely a risky move on Bernard's part, but in a way it makes a certain thematic sense. A boy feeling out of place in the world and one feeling out of place in his body, both seeking a place to belong. Besides it's still relatively tame compared to his other project, The Rose Princess. Check out the gallery below for a larger view of the sketch, as well as a couple of new screens from the game showing off some of Angel's larger enemies. More »

    Luc Bernard's The Rose Princess

    Luc Bernard is the mind behind the interactive fairy tail Eternity's Child, which is heading to the Wii and DS. After reading the story I posted yesterday, Bernard contacted Kotaku to offer up some exclusive details on another game he has in the works, The Rose Princess. At its heart, The Rose Princess is a story about a cello player and her rabbit, which seems cute and harmless enough, but then the details start coming. The cellist in question is found one day by said rabbit, lying amidst a field of dead roses (yes roses grow on bushes, but it's a different world than we live in). The girl is cursed so that everything she touches dies. Luckily her newfound friend isn't quite a living thing. No, Mr. Cuddles is a failed entertainer machine...a mechanical bunny created to sing and dance who can do neither. Before I continue, let me warn you that Mr. Cuddles is about to get a lot less cute.

    Eternity's Child Moves To Wii

    The world of Eternity's Child sounds very depressing. Once a vibrant planet teeming with life, pollution cause the ice caps to melt, flooding the planet and killing a majority of life. In the aftermath, the wingless began a campaign of genocide against the winged creatures fueled by jealousy. Mechanical automatons were created to make the world seem less empty, but as all robots do they eventually turned, destroying life instead of imitating it...or maybe they just learned from watching their masters? The social commentary is thick in this former Xbox Live Arcade title, now making the switch to the Wii and DS due to size constraints. You play Angel, an orphan whose wings were amputated to ensure his survival, as he sets out on a quest to find others like himself. Rescued from XBLA limbo by UK publisher Alten8, the Wii version sports completely hand-drawn graphics and orchestral soundtrack, as well as two-player co op. Eternity's Child could end up the most beautifully depressing game ever.
