Nexis Games Defends UCraft Multiplatform Release

We heard a couple of days ago that Nexis Games will be making UCraft a multiplatform game, which means it is no longer exclusive to the Wii U. Nexis Games took to their blog to defend the move stating that they didn’t think Wii U owners would be that bothered that the game is also coming to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. Here’s what they had to say about the bold new move after the failed Kickstarter.

“In the gaming community when a title is set to be exclusive for one Platform, Platform holders normally provide financial assistance to developers. This is done because of the massive amount of revenue developers lose by skipping other Platforms, unfortunately this is not the case for UCraft as it is being developed and funded entirely by Nexis Games (Me) and sadly I am not rich. When we made this decision we had no idea that Nintendo owners would care so much about UCraft going Multiplatform as long as it made it still made its way to the Wii U. We are not 100% against the idea of keeping UCraft on the Wii U/PC but in order for that to happen we will need your help. If there is enough interest we will consider relaunching another UCraft Kickstarter to keep UCaft exclusive to the Wii U.”

      1. What, you want this crap on your PS4? I can understand the Xbox One (shit and shit equals shit) but PS4 and Wii U? Fuck, get this crap away!!

        1. So let the game come out, why do you care? Isn’t more options better? Your saying as a consumer you want less options? Doesn’t make any sense to me.

          1. You as a CONSUMER/GAMER don`T want SHIT on your platform. Never heard about that? Wii had a LOT of games. but it also had a LOT OF SHIT!

    1. just who is this fucker who wants to be double paid for what he does, and threatens multiplats ?? fuck off loser developer, nobody will buy this cuz nobody cares.

  1. It isn’t offensive to do this, but if content in the other versions of the game is cut in the version of console I plan to get then that is a problem.

    1. And PlayStation has the game too. This is all very stupid to do: Promise a lie, start up a pointless Kickstarter without mentioning shit about it and then decide to turn back on their “promise” to port this crap to all platforms that already has the real Minecraft WITHOUT THE NEED FOR KICKSTARTER.

      None of this makes any fucking sense. Nexis has gone retarded.

  2. Can everyone stfu about UCraft? It looks like an awful game it’s a blatant minecraft rip-off. It’s not worth anyone’s time.

    1. I don’t have a problem with a Minecraft clone for Wii U, since Wii U won’t be getting the real thing, but I do agree that it looks awful.

  3. So basically Wii U owners can pay to get the game on their console only, or not pay a dime and allow all consoles to have the game. I prefer the latter because that means I don’t have to unnecessarily go in my pockets.

    1. DeJtheGamer is a WHORE. She sucks five cocks for breakfast and she licks balls for dinner. She sleeps with 18 different guys in one week. Smh. She is such a SLUT. She’s not as innocent as you think. WHAT A FUCKING WHORE.

  4. LOL is he giving Wii U owners the chance to make this game not be multiplat? Help him change his mind, guys! Wii U owners should definitely do it. Lmao. KEEP THIS GAME EXCLUSIVE to Wii U. Show those Xbox and Playstation gamers how much they suck and that they can’t have your game! Cause they’re always taking your games! Time to return the favor. ;)

    1. It’s no use anymore. Nexis has gone stupid and everything behind this garbage from false promising an exclusive to help Wii U, staging a useless kickstarter, then decided to port it over to other platforms that already has the real Minecraft without kickstarter and finally coming up with this weakass BS excuse.

      Screw it. Let them waste their intelligence and time.

      1. thestrangablog is a BITCH ASS NINTENDO FANBOY. All he ever does in whine about muthafuckin third party games and he praises and worships Nintendo games. He secretly wants Nintendo to notice him so that he can be able to suck Reggie, Iwata, and Miyamoto’s cock all at once. He can fit 12 dicks in his BIG ASS fat fanboy mouth. He’s ready to take a bite out of Reggie’s ass. And his mouth can devour Iwata’s 24 inch dick. Fuckin sick ass. Strangablog is truly a FAGGOT.

    2. HollowGrapeJ is a whiny baby. He cries about third party support because he can’t afford to get a second console so he blames it on Nintendo. He always write essays and motherfucking speeches every time you try to argue with him. There is no fucking point because he is naive and always thinks he’s right. And he constantly shits on anyone that praises Nintendo simply because they won’t give him what he wants. HE NEEDS A PACIFIER AND A DIAPER BECAUSE HE IS OBVIOUSLY A CRYBABY.

  5. “…they didn’t think Wii U owners would be that bothered that the game is also coming to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC…”

    Also? You mean this game is still coming to the Wii U?

    1. False promising Wii U owners a Minecraft-like game exclusivity, started a pointless kickstarter with no mentioning about it, blaming Wii U owners for not giving them enough money they never needed, decided to port the same Wii U named game to other platforms that has the real Minecraft without kickstarter and then come out with this BS?

      And you wonder why 3rd parties suck ass on Wii U.

  6. Who the hell would buy UCraft on a console with Minecraft (i.e. all the ones this guy plans to release it on other than the Wii U). Yes, great idea, expend more resources on porting to more platforms for nearly zero added revenue (plus probably sacrifice revenue on Wii U because Nintendo gamers do not forgive reneging on exclusivity).

  7. Why is everybody such an asshole towards a man trying to bring you exclusive content to a nintendo system? People act as if they are entitled to get good games for their system and anything less than complete innovation is trash. You don’t deserve any of this, it’s a privilege to get new and exclusive games.

    Clearly this developer is excited to have people try his game so stop bashing him for doing something that nobody here has the drive to even begin to start. When I was younger people went to the grocery store to rent games. All SNES games were super similar platforms and nobody cared. It was just fun to be able to control something in a digital environment.

    Stop being so negative towards somebody you don’t know being ambious about something they are passionate about whether it’s this guy, Ubisodt, Nintendo or anybody. A buncha Debbie Downers….

  8. i don’t know why they would make Ucaft when there’s minecaft for some reason ucaft is just awful minecaft is just way batter then a game that’s trying to beat minecaft’s ass off the market how crazy is that.

  9. i don’t get why it has to be an exclusive either

    are people really such shrews as to begrudge other people getting the game aswell?

    1. I have no problem with Ucraft but we haven’t been shown very much as far as content goes. and I agree with you i think it’s silly for gamers to intentionally take game choices away from other players.

    2. “i don’t get why it has to be an exclusive either”

      Really? Never heard about the fact, that you only have LIMITED developer time for a game? What happens if you have to e.g. halve that time (so say you would have 2 years, now half that and each version gets 1 year of your time) to each version?

      See? You get a version which is either:

      a) running with a less consistent framerate (and probably more bugs)
      b) running simply with a lot less features in it (because you had to cut them to get both versions ready for launch)

      See? Thats called logic! If you don`t make your game multiplat, you can give it much more developer-time. Meaning: You have much more time to search for bugs, OPTIMIZE the game (and btw that is what gamers want! They don`t your game running like ass, e.g. like AssCreeD unity!), use more features of the console or even ALL feautres (each console has its own specifiic features)…

      Thats why you allways make decisions to either favour a platform if you make A MULTIPLAT (e.g. when they made PS4/Xbox One Versions of Watchdogs, those two versions had the most developer-time- and the WiiU-version had the least)- or you simply only make a game for ONE PLATFORM ONLY!

      Best example to proof this:

      RAYMAN LEGENDS. It was once exclusive to WiiU- and WiiU-Version has had the most developer-time. Meaning: Its much better than on PS4/Xbox One or PS3/Xbox 360/PS Vita.

      The second best Version is the PS Vita version (because it has the touchscreen-contents which is the POINT why this game was made for WiIU in mind). The last best versions (most crappy ones) were for PS4 and Xbox One.

  10. I’d support it if I saw more of it and it looked fun. The couple of trailers I saw didn’t really show enough or look very polished to me, but from what I understand it’s being made by one guy so i’m sure it’s tough to do all that alone.

  11. “Nexis Games took to their blog to defend the move stating that they didn’t think Wii U owners would be that bothered that the game is also coming to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. ”

    No one gives a fuck if it ever comes out full-stop

  12. Seriously, this game is a horrible clone of Minecraft and reminds me somehow to shitty indie games like The Adventures of Captain Becky on the 360!

  13. newsflash- NOBODY FUCKING CARES! its a clone of a game that everybody already has. not to mention this game has lower graphics, and less content. nobody will want Ucraft unless its free

  14. I don’t have money, it cheaper to put it on one console, if you put it on one console the company gives you money, but I’m making it multiplatform, I don’t care for this game, but this guy is pretty stupid, original games do well across multiplats, a rip off game is not going to do well

  15. It’s a very bold move to say that we’re obligated to pay for an exclusive game’s development, especially when said game has so far shown very little to impress. I won’t feel bad when this game doesn’t sell

  16. As if people will buy the game that was made explicitly to be a clone of Minecraft on a system they has Minecraft available .____.

  17. So… according to this guy, if someone brings a game to an exclusive platform, the owners of said platform have to pay them for more than just the game… logic? If a game looks promising I’ll support it on kickstarter, but this game just doesn’t look good and I honestly don’t think it will do well.

  18. I thought that initially he said that he didn’t want our money? Now they do, but never told anybody about the kickstarter and now it’s multiplat. Ok?

  19. I wouldn’t have minded supporting this game if the developer just would have kept his mouth shut and made the game. This guy (nexus?) has made every mistake in the book. It almost appears like he is a butthurt child that had his kickstarter fail, so he’s taking his toys and going home.

    He could still just be quiet and finish the game. Don’t show it again until it’s finished. Relaunch a new “official trailer”, this time without the “I don’t want your money, just your heart” bullshit. Make sure it’s a good game. That is key. If you can release a good quality mine craft clone on the Wii U it will sell. Somehow I doubt this will happen.

  20. I’m… greatly confused. I didn’t plan to buy this anyway (I have Minecraft on my computer), but… what? So he’s making the game on the basis of “I’ll make this to sell to Wii U Owners because they can’t buy Minecraft on their system.” He even named the game around that idea. Then when people don’t Kickstart it enough, he decides to… put more effort to make it for platforms that already have Minecraft? And then wants people to pay to make him revoke that decision? The only people who will really care were people who were gonna buy it anyway, and those people are now gonna have to pay more for the game because…?

    Don’t get me wrong: it’s impressive for a one-man developed project. It just… is going up against MASSIVE competition (he’s challenging Microsoft now) and just threw away the only marketing campaign it had. Idk. As long as Microsoft doesn’t pull the plug on my PC Minecraft, UCraft is and will forever remain something I just read about and occasionally giggle at when I see stuff like this.

    1. How can Microsoft unplug Minecraft from your PC? If they ever shut down Minecraft, don’t you still have it downloaded and able to play in offline mode?

  21. Lol. I just went and watched the trailer. As someone who hadn’t found it worth the time to watch before, it’s hilarious now. “We don’t want your money, just your heart.” But when they don’t get our money, they break the other big promise from the trailer: “Only on Wii U”. Your words and your actions are very contradictory, Mr. Nexis.

  22. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

    This male human suffers from a mental disorder…

    -This is done because of the massive amount of revenue developers lose by skipping other Platforms, unfortunately this is not the case for UCraft as it is being developed and funded entirely by Nexis Games (Me) and sadly I am not rich. When we made this decision we had no idea that Nintendo owners would care so much about UCraft going Multiplatform as long as it made it still made its way to the Wii U. –

    He says “me” then “we” when he only said he was the only one developing it and funding it…

    -We are not 100% against the idea of keeping UCraft on the Wii U/PC but in order for that to happen we will need your help.

    So in other words, you lied, keep that thing away from the Wii U…

  23. In other words

    “We’ll start another Kickstarter just because we want your money, not for the game, for myself” – Nexis Games

    I’ve lost all interest in the game now… I wouldn’t even get it for my PC or Xbox One and Wii U. screw these guys asking for money for a game that looks like it was made on a shoe string budget.
