There's a WarioWare inspired RPG in development?

Surprised I didn't hear about this one, given it's by the same devs as Psycho Waluigi/Psycutlery, and I interviewed them on Gaming Reinvented a while ago. But yeah, apparently it's WarioWare meets Paper Mario in terms of gameplay style, with battles being fought as microgames and overworld/RPG stuff being like the RPGs.

Could be an interesting project for sure!

This reminds a bit of an RPG I saw called Knuckles Sandwich. It also had microgames for combat. The gimmick seems interesting for sure but I wonder how well it executes.

Yeah experimental battle systems are always a risk in RPGs. It paid off in Undertale, but not so much in the modern Paper Mario games or YIIK: A Post-Modern RPG.

Tbf, I always thought that every RPG battle system has a major flaw. Even the classic experience based one so for me it being experimental doesn't change much.
