JMJ Interactive made a slow-paced exploration game called “Star Sky” a few years back. The title landed on a few platforms, including PC, iOS, and Android.

Star Sky will now be coming to Wii U, creator Marten Jonsson has confirmed to Nintendo Everything. It will be available in both North America and Europe via the eShop in September if everything goes as planned.

An overview and trailer for Star Sky can be found below.

Star Sky is not a game for everyone. It is a slow-paced game of exploring different choices. There are secrets to unlock, and for those who make it to the end, there is alot of interesting things to reflect about. It is also a peaceful experience and a game about enjoying the ambience the world around you can provide. Make the choices, watch what happens, unlock the secret.

Star Sky is not a game you play for hours on end. You play it, see what there there is to discover and then play it as many times as you feel like. Then hopefully you will return and finish it at some point, in order to unlock the end. The game is meant to be a relaxing and ambient experience focusing on creating a soothing atmosphere rather than intense gameplay. It is similar to an interactive poem. A poem that has several endings and allow you to explore different scenarios. It is important that you take your time and allow yourself to feel the game as you play it.

ZeNfA Productions has brought out a third patch for ZaciSa’s Last Stand. The update makes improvements to the game as well as some gameplay changes. Additionally, the title is now in sync with the European version.

Here’s the full change log:

• The game has been improved upon to allow for even smoother experience. Even more crazy moments, like multiple Tesla Coils and Triple Enemy spawns barely lag at all.
• The maps: PING 1.5+, BLOK DROP U & Pollux System all have their starting money increased to allow for a better experience.
• Bot Changes:
• Tesla Coil now has slightly increased power.
• Drone now has slightly increased power.
• Bot Upgrades: Costs for upgrades are at a lower rate to allow for more upgrades. This only effects late stage upgrades, early level upgrades are still the same.
• Game Over Changes
• Money no longer provides as big of bonus to your score as it used to.
• Max score bonus from leftover money is now capped as well.
• Outstanding loans no longer hurt your final score as much either.
• These changes provide some fairness to the game scores.

Famitsu has a two-page feature on Chibi-Robo!: Zip Lash this week. The Japanese magazine touches on a couple of familiar things, but also presents new information.

In terms of the premise, Chibi-Robo and its partner robot Tonpi see in the news that resources have gone missing in various areas around the world. The two end up encountering an alien and pursue it thinking that this is the culprit.

One of the big hooks in Chibi-Robo!: Zip Lash is the ability to use Chibi-Robo’s plug and cord in side-scrolling stages. Players will be able to throw the cord in two ways: quick throw or power throw. By collecting blue and red balls, the cord can be extended. It can also be attached into an orange panel and then jump from place to place by shaking the cord.
