Imageepoch declared bankrupt

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 16 Comments

Plenty of rumors have been circulating about Stella Glow developer Imageepoch. The company’s status has finally been made clear, and unfortunately, the news isn’t very good.

Imageepoch as well as affiliate Smile Online Game have both declared bankruptcy. The two sides have debts of 1.1 billion yen (roughly $11 million) and 3 million yen ($30,000) respectively. Imageepoch’s debt is owed to 43 creditors while Smile Online Game’s debt is owed to 5 creditors.

Back in 2011, Imageepoch made 1.751 billion yen (roughly 17.5 million) in annual income. That number dropped to 410 million yen (roughly 4.1 million) by 2013, and the company fell into debt due to game development costs and being unable to hit sales targets. Due to the worsening situation, Imageepoch ceased operations in November 2014.

Stella Glow is the latest title from Imageepoch, which is now being published by SEGA in Japan early next month. At the end of March, Atlus announced that the RPG would be coming to North America later this year.

Nintendo releases free-to-play Pushmo game for 3DS in Japan

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 6 Comments

Update: It seems that it’s technically going by the term “free-to-play”, but it’s more like a demo. Once downloaded, those who try out Pushmo: Hippa Land can choose which type of course they want. There are seven free puzzles from the four worlds (regular puzzles, puzzles that look like objects, puzzles with enemies, and NES-sprite based puzzles). We’re also hearing that each world has a different character to play as.

Players must beat the 28 free levels before having the option to buy worlds. Before gaining access to the “Create-A-Puzzle” feature, you need to purchase one world.

The Pushmo/Crashmo series is returning to 3DS. Nintendo just announced a new free-to-play entry for its portable today, and it’s already out in Japan.

This new entry – called “Pushmo: Hippa Land” – is free-to-play. Players can purchase one world for 500 yen, which contains 100 courses. There are an additional three, each of which features 50 courses and costs 300 yen. Alternatively, it’s possible to buy all four for a discount of 400 yen (1,000 yen in total).

Those who purchase and complete all four worlds will earn a special challenge titled “Super-Difficult Mountain”. In one world, players need to beat/overcome enemies. Just like the original game, you can share puzzles with QR codes.
