Nihilumbra has new co-op mode on Wii U, also confirmed for May 14 release in Europe
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
BeautiFun Games is including an original mode in the Wii U version of Nihilumbra. Players will be able to try out new co-op mode, which appears to be exclusive to the eShop release.
While in co-op, one player will control Born while a second will control the brush/colors. Both will need to work together to escape from the Void. BeautiFun believes the mode “will add a whole new layer of fun to the game” and “seemed a clever way of exploiting the Wii U technology to enhance the Nihilumbra experience”.
We heard earlier today that Nihilumbra is due out on May 14 in North America. This date has now been confirmed for Europe as well. As is the case in North America, those who buy the game through May 28 can save 20 percent. It will normally be priced at $9.99 / €8.99.

Guardians of the Forest planned for the Wii U eShop, possibly 3DS
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Ratalaika Games is bringing its indie game “Guardians of the Forest” to Wii U, and it could land on 3DS as well.
Guardians of the Forest is a multiplayer brawler that takes place in a mystical woods. Players beat enemies by jumping on their heads. Different weapons and power-ups will mix things up by introducing unique ways to enhance abilities and receive protection from attacks.
In an interview with HackInformer, Ratalaika Games discussed how Guardians of the Forest will play on Wii U:
Well, for the Wii U controller we have several plans. We didn’t want to just throw the game on the Wii U controller screen like you will be playing on the TV. So we will probably add the current game scores and some handy buttons when on the menu. Even though we will allow the player to see the game on their controller like on TV if he or she wants to.
Ratalaika has also expressed interest in making a 3DS version of Guardians of the Forest, but nothing is confirmed at this time. You can check out some alpha gameplay below.
