Two Tribes reconfirms RIVE as their last game

A portion of a NindieSpotlight interview with Two Tribes' Niels ’t Hooft...

NS: On the Two Tribes website there's a pretty long post tied to the statement that RIVE will be your last game. I take it that at this point this still stands and that you're just trying to make the most of your investment by getting it out on the Switch or has anything progressed differently in terms of your direction?

Niels: We stand by what we wrote back then! Martijn and Collin, the Two Tribes founders, have been at this game for nearly two decades, and they don't feel like starting another long-winding, risky project. Yet at the same time, they still love the projects they’ve done before, and they love the fans of our games.

That last part is a huge reason why we’re making the Switch version: Nintendo gamers have been waiting for RIVE since the Wii U and we finally want to deliver it to them, in the best version possible.

Just to be clear, the financials are obviously a part of any business, but we wouldn’t make a Switch version of RIVE if we didn’t love the game, didn’t love the gamers, didn’t love the prospect of making this game even better for a wonderful new platform!
