It didn’t take long for Jools Watsham to announce a new game following the closure of Renegade Kid. At Atooi, Watsham is currently making Chicken Wiggle for the 3DS eShop and iOS.

Here’s an overview:

“The stars of Chicken Wiggle are an improbable duo: a young chicken and his best buddy – a wiggly worm – nestled in his backpack! Together, they team up for adventure to jump, peck, and worm-grapple across a myriad of perplexing platforming levels – full of fun gadgets, tricky hazards, and sneaky foes – determined to rescue their friends from the wicked witch in her sky towers.”

And a teaser:

A big aspect of Chicken Wiggle is the game’s level creator. Users can choose between various gameplay rules, art themes, and provide custom hints, tips, and search tags. Levels can then be shared with others through a community portal.

Chicken Wiggle will be released “soon.”

Quest of Dungeons has a final release date on Wii U. In both North America and Europe, it’ll be launching on September 29. Pricing is set at $8.99 / €8.99 / £7.99. Off-TV play, the Wii U Pro Controller, and a mixed setup with the mini-map and inventory on the GamePad are all supported.

As for the 3DS version, Upfall Studios has this to say:

“I still don’t have a locked release date, but it’s close, next time I talk about it, it will be to announce when. Coordinating both versions of the game (on both regions) for a simultaneous release turned out to be a bit trickier than anticipated to the small team (1 person) but I’m nearly there, just working on some last minute issues, and I think I’ll be able to release it close to the Wii U version. When I have the final release date I’ll let you know. It will be launched simultaneously on both regions as well.”

When the 3DS version is ready, cross-buy will be supported. You’ll only need to pay for one version as long as you’re using the same Nintendo Network ID.

A part of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U’s Tournament mode is ending very soon. On September 30, the Regular Tourneys feature will no longer be accessible. You’ll simply see a blank area in this section once the date arrives.

Keep in mind that you’ll still be able to make your own tourneys. Nintendo apologizes to those disappointed by today’s news.
