With less than a week remaining, Wii U has been added in as an official stretch goal for The Girl and the Robot’s Kickstarter. The campaign needs to hit $25,000 CAD in order to ensure a release on Nintendo’s console. That goal must be reached by November 28.

You can find the official Kickstarter page here.

This was serious — we all have a deep love for the platform, and that type of money would allow us to hire someone full time to ‘down-port’ the game. Of course, it would be a hefty task and there would be significant differences — fewer enemies, effects and animation frames due to memory limitations — though I think we could adjust and make something incredibly special with ‘Super Hyper Light Drifter’ regardless. It’s a dream goal to put it up on my favorite console of all, and I hope to accomplish that dream sooner than later. Maybe once we release the game we will have the opportunity to accomplish this.

– Hyper Light Drifter creator Alex Preston

Alex spoke with RedBull Gaming about plenty of other things, particularly mentioning the potential inclusion of an area of the game that uses Mode7-like traversal– a ‘fun vehicle section’ as he calls it. Plenty of things to be excited about here!
