Atlus Software, the same guys responsible for Trauma Center, Phoenix Wright, and Contact, is in for yet another warm welcome with their upcoming adventure game entitled Touch Detective.Touch Detective is said to be the very first DS title to offer full stylus control of the handheld console while going about doing detective work and solving mysteries. The game won't make use of the console's wireless feature nor the microphone input, and will just focus solely on the stylus and touch screen feature.
Unlike most of the games coming out for the DS, Touch Detective is also an all-original IP, and is not based on any anime or manga series. However, Atlus Software may not be too surprised if someone decides to up and create a manga series based on the game because the character artwork looks a whole lotta fun AND creative. When asked to describe the game's artwork, Jamie Ortiz said, "It looks like a cross between a Tim Burton movie and a Jhonen Vasquez comic."
Sounds interesting, huh? Well, with this IGN interview, the game's American project lead, Jamie Ortiz, shares more about the game. He talked about the origin of the concept and idea for Touch Detective; where it came from and how it was shaped. The interview also tackles other features of the game, such as side quests, ranking system, how the evidence-gathering system works, and whether the game will have multiplayer or competitive modes.
Ortiz says that since you'll get to take on the role of a detective, how you handle the evidence you gather will play a huge part in the overall gameplay. And it won't be as easy as merely searching for them and picking them up; you'll have to get creative on how you combine, deconstruct, and analyze the items gathered as evidence in order to give you clues on how to solve the case.
The interview talks about this and tons more, including plans of porting the game to Wii (since Cooking Mama, Big BrainAcademy, and their other titles have made the jump).

Currently being developed by BeeWorks, Touch Detective is slated for a U.S. release on October 24th.
