Black Forest Games is about to launch a new Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams Halloween level in the form of DLC. However, a release isn’t planned on consoles – Wii U eShop, PlayStation Network, and Xbox Live Arcade – due to the “extensive submission process” that would have been required.

Black Forest Games does plan to make up the DLC absence for console players. In its announcement today, the studio teased “several things” that are coming to consoles next year.

“That’s our way to celebrate Halloween with all the Giana Sisters fans out there. Knowing that the question will be raised: Since there is an extensive submission process required for consoles, we are currently not working on bringing the DLC to PSN, XBLA or WiiU. For all those playing Giana on console: there are several things planned for 2014.”

Nintendo decided against launching Wii Party U on the eShop in North America and Europe. The situation is different Down Under, however.

Yep – Wii Party U is up on the Australian Wii U eShop. It’s been available since the game’s launch late last week, in fact.

Why is Wii Party U being distributed on the Australian eShop but not the North American and European stores? Your guess is as good as mine!

Update: Sharr has since retracted his original Kickstarter update – you can find the latest post here.

Earlier this year, a small indie team launched a Kickstarter for “Roam”. The survival simulator draws quite a few similarities to the recently-released How to Survive. Creator Ryan Sharr now claims in a Kickstarter update that 505 Games and Eko Software carried out ‘blatant theft’ for use in their own project.

It’s true that Roam and How to Survive share many of the same ideas, but Sharr isn’t making accusations out of the blue. Games do tend to share similar concepts from time to time, but 505 Games actually contacted Sharr during the Kickstarter campaign in hopes of arranging a publishing deal. It was refused, and 505 Games ended up announcing – and launching – How to Survive just a few months later.

Sharr has not yet determined how he will proceed. You can find his full notice after the break, which should give you better insight into the situation.

Knite & The Ghost Lights has reached its funding goal on Kickstarter. Last night, the game surpassed its $35,000 target.

That’s good news for Nintendo fans. Now that Knite & The Ghost Lights has been funded, a Wii U version has been secured.
