Deer Drive Legends

Deer Drive Legends is a three-dimensional hunting video game, developed by Raylight s.r.l.[1] This 3D hunting game was published by Maximum Games and released on the Nintendo 3DS in May 2012 for both retail and download via Nintendo eShop.[2] It was later ported as a Wii and retail Windows PC game, and released in November 2012. The PC version was re-titled as Deer Hunt Legends. Unexpectedly, the Wii version of the game was eventually re-released as a WiiWare title on November 19, 2013,[3] the first WiiWare title ever since Retro City Rampage launched on the platform in February 2013.

The PC version became available in Europe via digital distribution when it was released globally on Steam in January 2013. The Nintendo 3DS and WiiWare versions of the game were released in Europe in August and November 2013 respectively, wherein the Nintendo 3DS version is exclusively an eShop downloadable with a reduced price.[4][5]

Deer Drive Legends is rated T for Teens by the ESRB.[6] Deer Drive Legends has little relation to the 2007 Deer Drive and 2009 Deer Drive games, other than having similar titles and deer hunting concepts.

Setting

Deer Drive Legends takes place in numerous locations throughout the world, including the African Savannah, Rocky Mountains, and Great Lakes. Players will explore famed hunting regions across four continents in search of the biggest trophy.[7]

Animals

Players will take down a number of elusive animals such as bears, antelope, elk, deer, moose, and mountain lions. The game also features prehistoric species such as the Smilodon, T-Rex, and Gastornis.[8]

gollark: No.
gollark: The hilarity of a joke is directly proportional to the square of its length, you know.

gollark: What do Linux users do to change a lightbulb?First, a user creates a bug report, only for it to be closed with "could not reproduce" as the developers got to it in the day. Eventually, some nights later, someone realizes that it is actually a problem, and decides to start work on a fix, soliciting the help of other people.Debates soon break out on the architecture of the new lightbulb - should they replace it with an incandescent bulb (since the bulb which broke was one of those), try and upgrade it to a halogen or LED bulb, which are technically superior if more complex. or go to a simpler and perhaps more reliable solution such as a fire?While an LED bulb is decided on, they eventually, after yet more debate, deem off-the-shelf bulbs unsuitable, and decide to make their own using commercially available LED modules. However, some of the group working on this are unhappy with this, and splinter off, trying to set up their own open semiconductor production operation to produce the LEDs.Despite delays introduced by feature creep, as it was decided halfway through to also add RGB capability and wireless control, the main group still manages to produce an early alpha, and tests it as a replacement for the original bulb. Unfortunately it stops working after a few days of use, and debugging of the system suggests that the problem is because of their power supply - the bulb needs complex, expensive, and somewhat easily damaged circuitry to convert the mains AC power into DC suitable for the LEDs, and they got that bit a bit wrong.So they decide to launch their own power grid and lighting fixture standard, which is, although incompatible with every other device, technically superior, and integrates high-speed networking so they can improve the control hardware. Having completely retrofitted the house the original lightbulb failed in and put all their designs and code up on GitHub, they deem the project a success, and after only a year!
gollark: Minetest is already a thing.
