\"Cuphead\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer<\/a><\/strong> has become an instant success on the Switch eShop. It’s already dominating<\/a> the download charts in multiple regions and has been well received by fans and critics alike. Being an indie-made title, it’s obviously got a lot of smaller-sized developers thinking about what they would potentially do with Nintendo’s IP if they were given the opportunity.<\/p>\n

In an interview within the upcoming issue of Nintendo Force, Cuphead<\/a><\/strong> developer, Studio MDHR, revealed its own dreams to one day make a new Zelda game. Jared Moldenhauer – the brother and co-founder of the studio – was more than happy to go into detail about what the team had in mind:<\/p>\n

\n

“…a sprawling Zelda<\/em> title brought to life in a doting 2D hand-animated style…Think of all the expressiveness and life you could bring to the tribes, people, and enemies of a universe that rich! And much like Cuphead<\/em>, we would get to test our design mettle coming up with screen-filling bosses of an entirely different nature. Of course, backgrounds would be completely hand-painted with nothing re-used! The list just goes on and on. It would be an absolute dream come true.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Previously, the indie developer Elden Pixels \u2013 a team made up of ex-Zoink and Image & Form employees \u2013 revealed<\/a> it would love to do a follow-up to Zelda II: The Adventure of Link<\/a><\/strong> and even went to the extent of tagging Nintendo of America and Europe in a message on Twitter.<\/p>\n

Now that Cadence of Hyrule has proven itself, it seems like there’s a better chance than ever of more Nintendo-indie collaborations happening in the future. Nindie manager Kirk Scott even said Nintendo working with smaller studios worldwide could perhaps become a trend.<\/p>\n
