Geometry Wars fans will be pleased to hear that it doesn't look like the psychedelic shooter series will end with the second game.
Speaking to MTV's Multiplayer blog, Bizarre Creations' Craig Howard revealed that the series is "not going to stop," and that the developer has "enough game ideas to do Geometry Wars for probably about 10 games".
"It depends on what will work," said Howard. "Geometry Wars is definitely a franchise."
According to Bizarre there have been many "experiments" left on the cutting room floor from the second game, but it doesn't want to reveal them because the developer might "use them in the future for god knows what". Arcade games in new racing games?
"We were initially like, 'Ooh let's get a Geometry Wars out next year'," he said. "When we sat down, we realized we didn't really know what we wanted to do with it."
The eventual goal for Geometry Wars Retro Evolved 2 was to present to players only the modes with the most "pure" elements, he said.
