SO STOKED on this game! Pizza Boy is by far one of the tightest, most polished (not to mention it's crazy-fun) platfomers on the App Store. Can't wait for the release of this!

[NCsoft]

@frasermorgan, I'm really glad you loved playing Pizza Boy!! it only took 4 weeks for Acne Play to develop Pizza Boy, and they definitely has put much more time and effort to My Little Hero - can you imagine how CRAZY-FUN this would be? ;)

[Abisco]

awesome! Never played this game but I love me some NCSoft!

4 weeks?!? Wow. Pizza Boy is one of my favorite iOS games. I can't wait for this game! :D

[Qurao]

I've got nothing but high hopes for this game considering how awesome Pizza Boy is, though I'm still hoping for a Pizza Boy iPad port sometime in the future.

[frasermorgan]

I second that, 4 weeks?!? You guys are brilliant.

+1

I thought they did a great job on Pizza Boy, so I'm looking forward to what they can do with this new game.

[AnarKitty]

Count me among the many huge fans of Pizza Boy around here, and the teaser trailer has me wanting more as soon as it can be shown. Very excited to see this title, and hopeful it will see the light of day this year! :)

[LOLavi]

Yeah Pizza Boy is just brilliant and after I downloaded it for free and then played I felt really bad I didn't pay for it. and isn't NCsoft guys behind Gem Keeper? Cause then this duo is gonna go far :)

Reading this thread and watching everybody's enthusiasm grow is definitely putting smiles on both teams from NCsoft and ACNE Play!

We've been working together on this game for a little over a year now. Yes, the time difference has been gruesome for communication (we're located over in Seoul, South Korea, and the ACNE Play team is in Stockholm Sweden), and the guys over at ACNE Play have basically been in crunch period since forever. So one could only imagine how incredibly excited we are to finally release this lovechild that we refer to as a Little Hero onto the App Store very soon.

Make sure to keep following us on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/wemogames) and Twitter (https://twitter.com/intent/user?screen_name=WeMoGames) for the latest and greatest news.

PSSSSSST there's a rumor going on that something juicy will be revealed next Monday - keep an eye out. (if anybody asks, you didn't hear it from me ;))

[NCsoft]

The Official Trailer is FINALLY OUT!!! .....and of course, that's not all. Hope you enjoy the trailer, AND also this juicy event that we have prepared for all of you :D

[adichandra]

wow. speechless. hope this game can be a zelda game for iOS because it looks similar.

i love pizza boy, the control is so fluid that i forgot i played it in a touch screen device.

can't wait to try this lil hero.

[squarezero]

Seems like mash up of Zelda and Costume Quest, which is a great idea in my book. Definitely looking forward to it!

[imosmo]

looks like a great game. a different style from other adventure games. Look forward to it!!

[TheStark]

This is awesome. Reminds me of those old stop-motion "cartoons" from Eastern Europe in the 80s. Great memories, I really hope the game will rock.

[Andre]

Oh my god, 4 weeks? I really admire you, NCSoft. :)

[WizMan]

I like the part where the umbrella turns into a parachute. I hope for more monsters in the game.

[NCsoft]

More monsters? You betcha there are a LOT of monsters in this game.
We've got 40+ different types of monsters with unique attack styles
PLUS 5 different types of BOSS Monsters.

ACNE Play is already working on the next major level update for the game as well, which could only mean one thing: MOOORRREEE MONSTTERRRSSSS

[NCsoft]

These are some of the monsters that you will going to meet very soon in My Little Hero....personally they are some of my favorites!

http://i49.tinypic.com/160od8x.jpg

You will be given a special trunk where you can keep all the weapons and hidden collectibles that you find on the way...and YES you will need a BIG trunk for that!

Who are your favorite heroes or monsters? I've seen alot of heroes lately...

[shayllasreactor]

That little boy is so cute.
Can you let me know his name?

[NCsoft]

That little boy is so cute.
Can you let me know his name?

Hi Shayllasreactor,

Our little Hero tends to go by a variety of names, mainly because there are a ton of dads in NCsoft and ACNE Play and they all seem to think that the little Hero was based off of their own sons.

The first name that the boy received however, was Billy, who was the main model for the game. Billy is the son of the lead artist, Tomas. So if you would like to put a name to our little Hero, you may call him Billy. Otherwise, in the story our hero has no official name - so feel free to call him by whatever dearest name you would like to. :)

[NCsoft]

@frasermorgan, I'm really glad you loved playing Pizza Boy!! it only took 4 weeks for Acne Play to develop Pizza Boy, and they definitely has put much more time and effort to My Little Hero - can you imagine how CRAZY-FUN this would be? ;)

So apparently we had some of our facts wrong- just to keep all our facts straight, we're coming clean.

4 weeks was the time it took to prepare an update- it took 6 months to develop the glorious game we call Pizza Boy.

[qberey]

Unique~ never seen this kind of design style rpg..before. will be fun?

[moemiemoe]

Hooooahh!! How come I just saw this thread? :D hope this game wouldn't be too easy to play...seems like my baby brother will like it! lol

[saiyukialex]

May is coming!!!

[shayllasreactor]

Doesn't Avengers recruit this little hero? XD

[yoko]

yayyy!!
You sure have my support cause this just looks amaaaazziningg!!!:)

[dalbbang]

IS IT MAY YET???

Seriously, the trailer looks pretty damn amazing. I'm a total sucker for storybook type adventures.

Since May can't come soon enough, I'm just going to sit here and hope that you guys at NCsoft decide to recruit some early reviewers on the forums...!

[NCsoft]

So we know a lot of you have been waiting for more news on our title with ACNE Play... "MORE INFO PLZ!" you beg us.

But we're going to leave you hanging for just a little bit more...
To relieve that gamer thirst of yours, we'll be giving you a drop of some upcoming assets that you'll be seeing on the App Store.

[CygnetSeven]

I can't get the link to direct me to the game but I was the first to try! That shows enthusiasm, doesn't it? :D:D:D
Top quality stuff for sure. I'll keep searching for the app cause I'm so dang enthusiastic about it! Love your work and all you do. Keep it up and I can't wait till release day! *out of breath*

[CodyDeluxe]

Whoa Pure Awesomeness! Reminds me of Zelda for the N64! I cant wait to get this game!

[NCsoft]

We fixed the link to the app. let us know if the app still doesn't work!! ;)

[BlaikAwesome]

So cool! Love the Zelda-feel to it all!

[Shan82]

The link still doesn't work but I clicked on it. ;)
This is one game that I can't wait to get if you all are still giving away promo codes I'd love to have one! Thank you. :)

[Peewhy]

I really like the main character design in this game

[CygnetSeven]

We fixed the link to the app. let us know if the app still doesn't work!! ;)

The problem was because I had secured browsing on in my settings.

My Hero is The Caffinated Hero. My power is to eat 47 hot dogs in under a minute while dodging bullets like Neo. Caffinated Hero? Are you reading my mind? I drink Starbucks almost everyday. I think it has me pegged! Will direct friends to your app. Good luck!

[Daver16]

Wow I got to say this looks really amazing!! I love the art style and the slash action adventure style game play.
I can't wait to try this one out it looks like it really has potential to be absolutely fantastic!!! Thanks NCsoft for always bringing out so many great games!

[moemiemoe]

Ironman used to be my favorite hero but I am a supdermann!!
Hahha the app is really cutee!!

[CodyDeluxe]

My favorite superhero used to be batman! Now My hero type is The Super-sized Hero! My super power is to scratch on the turntable while doing a triple flip.

[Platyrrhine]

Is the very important information the release date which is conveniently located on the page which tells you your hero type? I'm not going to be the one to give it away. Go look for yourself if you don't know when it's coming out! :D I don't think I've seen that elsewhere! Well, at the very least it's very important information to me :) The game looks great. The art, concept, and story are all charmingly adorable - or maybe adorably charming. I still haven't decided which one.

Apparently my hero type is "Hero in the bathroom," which is especially fitting given that my favorite superhero was Captain Underpants. My super power is that I can perform flying side-kicks while making a silly face. I don't know about flying side-kicks, but I can make a silly face.

And I must admit that, with my trusty plunger in hand, I strike fear into the hearts of all who oppose me.

[Shan82]

If the link doesn't work go here to fix your Facebook settings:

My Hero Type was The Super-sized Hero. :D

[LookingForGames]

This game looks really really awesome!:D Fantastic job you did there guys!

[Daver16]

The Facebook app is a lot of fun I put Yo noid for favorite super hero and got Super Sized hero and put in Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles and got Thunder hero which looks pretty awesome!!

[dalbbang]

Whoa, insane cuteness goin on here.

[Jdragoon19]

Wow, just wow! Shit, I didn't see this thread when it first came out! I just saw it today and I'm so excited! Looks like an amazing 3d adventure type game! I've been waiting for one to trickle on to the AppStore sooner or later. And here it is!!

I loved Pizza Boy and Gem Keeper because they were so polished and smooth on my iDevice! Hopefully, this will be as well :) I watched the gameplay trailer and I'm literally shaking with excitement! Can't wait for this game, thanks NCsoft :D
