Slain! expected on Wii U between May and July
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 5 Comments
Slain! has been delayed once again. Wolf Brew Games and Digerati Distribution now plan to have the title ready on March 24 for PC, followed by other platforms including Wii U sometime between May and July.
The main reason behind this latest delay is difficulty. “Right now no mortal man or woman could possibly get past Slain!’s intense platforming, traps and monstrosities,” Wolf Brew Games said in a recent statement.

Gunscape now targeted for release in February
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 3 Comments
We first reported on Gunscape last September. Blowfish Studios’ first-person shooter lets players create their own levels and multiplayer maps. That’s in addition to cross-platform sharing, which allows for content to be exchanged with other platforms such as the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Gunscape was originally planned for release in January. This month has almost finished, and now Blowfish says that they hope to have the title ready sometime in February.
The developer told one fan on Twitter earlier this month:
@c4white33 Hi Connor! We're happy to hear that you're excited about it! And about your question, we're aiming to release it in February 🙂
