The most recent screens of Starfish's
Kiki Kai World are looking ... well, a little bit sparse. We're somewhat disappointed by the basically blank environments. It's quite a contrast from the lush graphics seen in
earlier screenshots. The sprites look quite nice, but some of the screenshots seem a little low on detail, like the one above. Spamming the screen with a pile of identical enemies-- it's bizarre, but doesn't make for a super-impressive screenshot.
Of course, our impression could be a result of the snow level, which, for a game with this perspective, means pretty much solid white. We're just glad Famitsu is calling this a Wii game, because we
had some doubts recently.

The first
real screens of
Kiki Kai World-- as in,
not screens of the cancelled
Kiki KaiKai 2-- have been released, with the new character sprites. Since we're not heavily invested in the
Kiki KaiKai universe, we couldn't care less that the characters look a little different. The gorgeous high-resolution 2D art and brilliant colors make us very happy that this game exists. The NeoGAF audience seems to be less impressed with these shots than the previous
Kiki KaiKai 2 stuff (mostly for technical reasons: the images are resized and there's a bit of JPG artifacting), but we still like them.
What
doesn't make us happy, however, is that Gamespot labels
Kiki Kai World as a PS2 game only. And, to make things worse, publisher UFO Interactive only shows the PS2 version as "Coming Soon" on their
website, with no mention of the Wii version at all. We may have just posted screens that have nothing to do with the Wii! We posted them out of
faith. [Via
