Imagos Softworks is teaming up with Playism to bring Starr Mazer to new platforms. Among the lineup are brand new Wii U and 3DS versions.

Starr Mazer features a mix of point-and-click and shooting gameplay. If you haven’t heard of the title before, this overview should clue you in:

Starr Mazer is a modernized fusion of 2 classic genres: The point-and-click (PNC) adventure and horizontal scrolling shoot ’em up (SHMUP). The game is highly replayable as both the PNC story and SHMUP levels of each playthrough are procedurally generated and significantly different each time. In this regard it is different from traditional PNC Adventures, which were linear in their storytelling and did not yield anything new on subsequent playthroughs.

The narrative progression of each playthrough uses Open-Middled Gameplay (OMG!) in that the story modules kick off predictably and the endings are varied and satisfying, but what happens in between is up to the predetermination of the story creation algorithm as well as the choices the player makes, performance in the SHMUP segments and a host of other environmental / chronological / enigmatic variables.

Though procedural, both the PNC and SHMUP segments of Starr Mazer are highly crafted to provide an engaging, beautiful, exciting and replayable experience. Great care has been put into the modular PNC story engine and SHMUP level assembly.

We also have the following trailer for the game:

Yesterday, Nintendo shared an image on Twitter showing what the rest of the year is looking like for indie games. The company shared an updated lineup for both Wii U and 3DS.

For the most part, these titles were already known. There do seem to be a few new ones there though like Rocket Fist and Dub Wars. Overall, the lineup is shaping up to be rather nice!

Thanks to Jake for the tip.
