We haven’t received word yet about a North American release date, but we’ll have any news right here.

What’s Broken Rules up to these days? The developer released Chasing Aurora for the Wii U eShop back in November but has been quiet since.

In a new interview, Broken Rules confirmed that it is making a new title “set in the same world as Chasing Aurora”. It’ll be a single-player experience, according to the studio. And for those hoping it’d support Nintendo’s portable, we’re sorry to say that Broken Rules doesn’t have any 3DS plans at the moment.

“We have nothing in the works for the 3DS. Yet we’re certainly working on a new game set in the same world as Chasing Aurora. All I can tell you so far is that it will be a single player game.”

Yacht Club Games, the first project from the new studio formed by former WayForward staffers, is known as “Shovel Knight”. The company launched a Kickstarter tonight that can be accessed here.

As described by Yacht Club, gamers can expect the following from Shovel Knight:

“Shovel Knight is a sweeping classic action adventure game with awesome gameplay, memorable characters, and an 8-bit retro aesthetic. It’s a hot mashup of new and old that may remind you of Mega Man, Castlevania, or Dark Souls! You play as the eponymous Shovel Knight, a small knight with a huge quest. Shovel Knight has come to this valley with two goals: to defeat the evil Enchantress and save his lost beloved. He wields a ShovelBlade: a multipurpose weapon whose techniques have now been lost to the ages. Always honest and helpful, Shovel Knight is a shining example of the code of Shovelry: Slash Mercilessly and Dig Tirelessly!”

Shovel Knight is a PC-only game for now. But Yacht Club’s Sean Velasco hinted to IGN that we could see the title on a Nintendo platform one day. Velasco told the site: “Our Nintendo love is definitely strong.” It’d be lovely if Shovel Knight eventually landed on the 3DS and/or Wii U, wouldn’t it?!
