Curve Digital bringing Hue to Wii U in Q1 2016
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Curve Digital hasn’t slowed down with its Wii U announcements. Today, the company announced that it will publish Hue on a number of platforms, including the eShop.
Hue is described as “a stark puzzle platformer where the aesthetics and mechanics are intertwined.” An official overview is posted below.
When Hue’s mother becomes trapped in the mono world, he gains access to the colour ring – a device which allows him to alter the perception of colour. Embarking on a mission to foil the evil intentions of the despicable Doctor Gray, Hue begins a journey which will not only shape him as person, but alter the world forever.
Key to the game is the ability to shift specific colours, a thrilling game mechanic which offers a host of new puzzle possibilities. Players can manipulate the environment in order to reveal hidden routes, avoid threats, remove hazards, defeat adversaries, create platforms and more…the gameplay possibilities are endless.
Hue has been funded by Kuju Startups, a video games investment fund who help great indie developers bring their dream ideas to market.
Hue is launching on Q1 on Wii U. View the game’s teaser trailer released earlier this year below.

Astral Breakers hitting the North American Wii U eShop next week
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Intropy Games is releasing Astral Breakers on the North American Wii U eShop next week, the studio confirmed today.
Astral Breakers is a cooperative/competitive action-puzzle game. The goal is to break colorful spheres, which in turn drops useless spheres into your opponent’s territory.
Astral Breakers allows for competitive play in Versus mode. In SuperNova survival mode, two players can team up against the CPU.
It’s possible to draw your own characters in the game. As it’s based on a Zodiac theme, you can use the GamePad to plot your own constellations. Constellations take on different properties when you bring them into battle. Their name, how they are drawn, their drop pattern and drop intensity (amount of garbage dropped on an opponent) will cause variations. Constellations are typically more lethal if they’re a complex drawing. Astral Breakers will also come with 12 existing Zodiac constellations.
Look for Astral Breakers on the Wii U eShop next Thursday.
