Super Cucumber & Down the Drain managed to reach its $10,000 Kickstarter goal a few days ago. As a result, it’s now confirmed that the project will be coming to Wii U.

Super Cucumber & Down the Drain is intended to be a classic 2D platformer. Players will be able to use various mobility and combat skills, face off against enemies, and more. The above video should give you a decent idea as to what you can expect from the game, but more information can be found on the Kickstarter page here.

Super Cucumber & Down the Drain is targeted for launch in March 2016.

Back when we originally reported on Underground, we mentioned how the game could be used to help train surgeons. Two control methods were always planned: one with a standard scheme, and another using a special setup.

With Underground’s North American release on the way, Grendel Games is finally ready to begin selling a laparoscopic controller, which houses two Wii Remotes and two nunchuks. Pricing is set at €250 (or roughly £182, with another £11 for UK shipping).

Indie game “Frizzy” is making its way to the Wii U eShop this summer. We don’t have a whole lot of information currently, but brief trailers show the player controlling a ball of fur/dirt, mixed with a bit of platforming. There will be enemies to take on as well.
