A World of Keflings is Turning Pink

A World of Keflings is Turning Pink

The latest update on the Candy DLC

Written by punkyliar on 13 April 12 at 12:52

NinjaBee were one of the many developers to make the journey to last weekend's PAX East gaming conference. PlayXBLA managed to bag themselves an interview with Jarrod Evans, a game designer at NinjaBee, alongside a coupleof exclusive screenshots and a handful of behind the scenes photos of the team working on the "Candy for Keflings" DLC for A World of Keflings.

The DLC is very much still in its development stage, but there will be a brand new story that is “like nothing you’ve ever seen in Keflings before”. There will be good guys, bad guys and bears that think they are gumdrops. There will also be a few new mechanics and twists, although there were no hints given as to what these were likely to be.

Here are the new screenshots showing cotton candy trees, the new Gingerlings, a finished Gingerbread House and a wizard named Waldorf.

These behind the scenes photos give an idea of the wacky concepts that the team are working on:

13/4/12 Behind the Scenes 2

The "Candy for Keflings" DLC is "coming soon".

New game mechanics that would actually be useful:
- Keflings that don't just abruptly stop everything they're doing for no reason
- Keflings that continue to follow instructions instead of changing their minds
- Jobless Keflings congregating on the town hall (or equivalent) instead of wandering

What we'll likely see:
- Build structures that help you build and unlock other structures until you build the last structure (a.k.a. same old, same old)

1) Never had any keflings stop working in my 3 playthroughs
2) Unless kicked or hit into another mineral to farm they carried on the same job until they ran out
3) Mine already did that
