Locomalito, creator of the most excellent freeware shooter Hydorah, has been revealing details of his next project piece by piece in interview fashion. First, IndieGames was able to get the title ‘s name The Curse of Issyos, and that it will be an ancient Greek mythology action-arcade game. Now, in a recent interview with Just One More Game, Locomalito reveals even more on the title.

Described as a straightforward, difficult arcade/platform game, with Shinobi, Megaman, Ghosts ‘n’ Goblins and Castlevania III cited as references during development; the title will bring an NES style graphics look and feel, chip tunes soundtrack, and what Loco calls a “clear playability.”

“It’s the kind of game I love to play now, as I don’t have time to play more than 30 or 40 minutes a day” he states. No media for the game yet so of course no release date either, ah shucks. We’ll be waiting for more, check out the full interview to further your education on this quirky developer and his delightful titles.
