Hotline Miami

Dennaton Games’ Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number is one of our most sought after games, indie or otherwise, and we’re looking forward to further expanding on the universe’s definition of ultraviolence. Gamereactor spoke to graphics artist Dennis Wedin about the game and found out that aside from the sequel, the indie developer is working on a brand new franchise.

Regarding Wrong Number, Wedin said, “A lot of the characters and the story elements and stuff like that, was already planned out when we did the first game. Just me and Jonatan expanding on the story for us. So we always felt that if the first game works, people buy it, we could do a sequel that we wanted to make.

“It’s more like us just fleshing out the story, because the story’s very vague, but we have a lot of details and a lot of thoughts to how we make it.”

There are plans for other stuff when Hotline Miami was finished. “We have a whole new franchise. It’s going to be totally different, but when you see it, you’ll know it’s us.”

Looking forward to it or Hotline Miami 2? Let us know below.
