A slew of details have come in for Treasurenauts. You can find them rounded up below.

– Need to get tons of treasure in the different worlds and levels
– Can get a Wario Land-like reward depending on your total at the end
– Adventure mode: romp through the world at your own pace, collect treasure, defeat enemies
– Hardcore mode: time limit, no saving
– Playable demo had 3 playable characters
– Characters were only different aesthetically
– Final game will include a bunch of different characters, including some from Renegade Kid’s other games
– Character differences come down to three different weapons: sword, gun, bombs
– Each has its own uses and styles
– Need to make use of them to unlock every portion of the world
– World map is inspired by Super Mario World
– Map leads around to different levels that might restrict you in a Metroid fashion
– Ex: access the second world just after the beginning, but need a double jump to progress in it, which is gained after beating the first boss
– If you team up with another player in co-op, you can sequence break together
– Co-op includes Download Play
– Playable demo levels include one from the beach world, jungle world, curse stage, and a boss fight
– Beach world is from the first world
– Culminates in the boss fight with a giant Mama Crab
– The jungle world is the second world
– The stages all had branching paths that had ample amounts of treasure hidden, some requiring different weapons to access
– Curse level is the equivalent of a ghost house in a Mario game
– The world around you gets drearier and colorless as you play, with Spelunky-like ghosts chasing you around as time wears on
– Hit a crystal in the middle of the level to reset the room, bringing it back to normal
– Clock resets and the level is cursed again
– Tentatively targeted for May/June
– Adventure mode was added later on, hence the delay

5th February 2014 – Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, the world of a legendary academic and puzzle sleuth is set to collide with that of a hot-shot, justice loving attorney from 28th March when Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney launches exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. Whether in the heat of a court case, or out on the streets of London or the mystical medieval city of Labyrinthia, prepare to witness two great minds come face to face with magic, witchcraft, and all manner of contradictions to get to the bottom of!

If you are new to either the Professor Layton or Ace Attorney series, this first crossover adventure for the pair combines the investigative and puzzle-solving game elements of Layton with the intense courtroom-based action of a Phoenix Wright title.
