I have led a double life, and have also had my hand deeply planted in the world of game development, specialising in art assets and design, for about 10 years now. I have also recently been employed producing architectural renderings and game asset commissions. Nintendo Life: Could you introduce yourself?ĭennis Varvaro: I am Dennis Varvaro I am a 31-year-old architect and architectural historian focused on ancient classicism, and contemporary construction based on pre-20th century movements. We talked exclusively to developer Aloft Studios about the project and the collaboration with Kikuta-San. Hazelnut Bastille is a wonderful looking retro-style game! I’m looking forward to being a part of it and hope we can create music that lives up to the rest of the game and everyone’s expectations! He was the lead composer for Secret of Mana, Seiken Densetsu 3, Sōkaigi, and later Koudelka, for which he also acted as producer and concept designer at his own company, Sacnoth.
He is an acclaimed Japanese video game composer, best known for his work at Square, which he joined in 1991. Hiroki Kikuta, age 55, is joining us as a celebrity guest composer. In addition, legendary Secret of Mana composer Hiroki Kikuta is on board, contributing to the soundtrack.
On the way, her story becomes irrevocably intertwined with the lives of those living in this far off land. Hazelnut Bastille tells the story of a young woman who travels to a foreign shore on the outskirts of her world, in order to seek out the promised gifts of mythological ancients, in hopes of retrieving something which was lost to her. We seek to emulate this period in most ways, from graphic presentation, to audio production, to general level design philosophy. Hazelnut Bastille, for PC, Mac, and Linux, and now Nintendo Switch, is a lush, topdown metroidvania in a 16bit JRPG style, which seeks to continue the great lineage of superior design from the mid 90's- the moment in time when mainstream 2D titles reached arguably their greatest level of refinement, in titles such as Super Metroid and Link to the Past.

The timescale for this release will either be simultaneous with our PC / Mac / Linux release, or following some months after, as funding and development time ultimately allows, but we would very much like to see a release across all four of our starter platforms if it proves possible! After being teased as ’fairly likely’ on social media in February, developer Aloft Studios has officially announced to Nintendo Life that Hazelnut Bastille, a game inspired by the golden era of SNES classic action RPGs, is planned for Switch.
