Mat from Nitrome sent over a short preview video of Skywire 2, the upcoming sequel to one of their most popular games, Skywire. So far it looks like it will be bigger and even better than the original, and is that 2-player versus split-screen I see?! Take a moment and check out the video while we all anticipate the imminent release of this great looking sequel. Watch Skywire 2 video.

Hot Air 2 was released about 12 days following the release of the preview video for it, so I'm expecting Skywire 2 to follow a similar schedule.

Yay! I'm so excited my head might blow up! Can't believe it's finally about to happen. I've been dreaming of this for ages and now it's a reality!
GAAHHH! If only we had a date...
And was that a multiplayer mode I saw? ...I can't wait!

Look at all the new tricks and traps. The kangaroo's my favorite.
Hot Air 2 had a slightly more defined plot than the original. Do you think it'll be the same with Skywire? What sort of plot can you write for a twisty cable car route?

I wonder if the simple concept of making your way forward whilst avoiding wildlife will stay the same.
I also wonder what other throwbacks to previous (or upcoming?) games there will be... for example, in the original Skywire, there were Roly Poly Hedgehogs, and the two squirrels bouncing the chick...

Skywire is my favourite Nitrome game and I can't wait until this comes out.

Going underwater, the tracks fall apart after you pass them, jumping through the air from track to track, and new level backgrounds! Looks like a lot of fun :D I hope there's more than 20 levels this time...

I think it is as at the bottom right it says Level 10, and I always think of Level 10's as Boss Sort of level.
And Nitromer, your in luck, on the bottom left of a clip in the trailer it says Level 21, so there must be more than 20 levels!
I hope it comes out soon!
Posted by: Zac | May 6, 2008 3:11 AM
I really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really want this to come out soon!
Posted by: Zac | May 6, 2008 12:01 PM

Posted by: amoz | May 9, 2008 2:46 AM

No Problem!
I have just sent an email to Nitrome asking them when it will comes out... Has anyone else done this? Any replies?
I hope I will get one soon!
Posted by: Zac | May 10, 2008 10:48 AM
This is what I got back from the Email sent to Nitrome...
Hi Zac,
Sorry but we have no fixed date as yet. It will be out some time in the next month though.
Cheers
Mat

Zac u no that email does it mean may or june?
Posted by: amy | May 14, 2008 2:46 AM
This is what I got:
Hi,
Glad to hear that you are keen!
I think we should have a new game out by the end of the week….hopefully a couple of days. Then after that the plan is to launch Skywire 2 about two weeks after that. Don’t take this as a guarantee though something could change and it could get put back a bit or possibly brought forward.
Cheers
Mat
