Nicalis was showing off the just-revealed 1001 Spikes at iDÉAME 2012. iDÉAME is a gathering of sorts for indie developers.
As previously mentioned, 1001 Spikes is remake of the Xbox Live Marketplace release, Aban Hawkins & the 1000 Spikes.
The first gameplay details have arrived and are as follows:
– Demo begins in a jungle close to a waterfall
– A: shoot
– B: jump
– Y: high jump
– Noticeable differences in the two jumps
– Other buttons aren’t used, nor is the touch screen
– Find a key that opens a door in each level
– Enemies, falling blocks, ravines, and other obstacles will get in your way
– Style comparable to Cave Story and La-Mulana
Note that the 3DS eShop version was tested. Gameplay will be similar if not identical to the Wii U digital download version.
