A new Ghostbusters developer’s diary is online

This month’s developer’s diary talks about how Red Fly Studio and Terminal Reality developed Ghostbusters with a great deal of respect to the source material. We all grew up fans of Ghostbusters–like most of you reading this–so we knew that certain details could not be skipped when putting the proton wand into the hands of the fans.

Destructoid takes an early look at Cook or Be Cooked

Dyson at Destructoid saw our earliest demo of Cook or Be Cooked and seems to “get it.” I’ve seen a lot of user comments complaining that this doesn’t look like an exciting game, but Destructoid understands that it isn’t a traditional “game” as such. It falls more along the lines of Wii Fit than Super Mario Galaxy. It’s meant to enrich your life by using the Wii to improve your knowledge and abilities in the kitchen.

Finally announced: Cook or Be Cooked!

We’ve been hard at work on this project for months but until the official announcement, we couldn’t say anything about it. We’re very excited about Food Network: Cook or Be Cooked.

It’s a completely different branch of the industry than our previous work, and it’s very comfortable spreading Red Fly Studio out across a wide spectrum of the video game world.

From a big fan

11-year-old Frankie Limaldi is a big Mushroom Men fan. He likes the little guys so much, he constructed Lego versions of them. Thanks Frankie!

Ghostbusters for the Wii finally gets some love

Jon Christensen at /gamer is quick to point out that the version of Ghostbusters we’re developing for the Wii hasn’t gotten nearly as much attention as its high-poly Xbox360/PS3 counterpart. That changed today when an official Wii-only trailer hit the internet.

The user comments accompanying GoNintendo’s report of the video are very, very encouraging.
