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.
