Gaijin Games has revealed the final three characters that will be included in Runner2’s “Good Friends Character Pack” DLC. Spelunky’s Spelunky Guy, Bit.Trip’s (Invisible) CommanderVideo, and the Steam-exclusive Atlas from Portal 2 have been announced today. They’ll be joined by Cave Story’s Quote, Psychonauts’ Raz, Super Meat Boy’s Dr. Fetus, and Machinarium’s Josef.




Dreamken Studios’ 2D RPG, “Whilom: Sins”, could make its way to the Wii U eShop, assuming the project’s Kickstarter campaign stretch goal is reached. If funds hit $80,000, it’ll be made for Nintendo’s console as well as the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PS Vita.

Whilom: Sins is planned for release in 2014.

You can find the official Kickstarter page and more about the game here. Dreamken needs $25,000 in order to receive funding.

Two more characters have been revealed for Runner2’s “Good Friends Character Pack”.

Cave Story’s Quote and Psychonaut’s Raz were announced for the game yesterday. Today, Super Meat Boy’s Dr. Fetus and Machinarium’s Josef were also confirmed.

Look out tomorrow for the reveals of the final three characters.


The date doesn’t apply to the Wii U version, but we can still enjoy the footage:



Chasing Aurora developer Broken Rules has announced Secrets of Raetikon (stylized SECRETS OF RÆTIKON), a new aerial exploration game set in the Alps. The team has been working on the project since early 2011.

Players will fly through a variety of environments including hills, forests, snowy mountain tops, and even lightning storms. They’ll also come across wild animals – who interact with the user and each other – as well as remnants of an ancient civilization. You can choose to engage in combat or simply explore and solve mysteries.

Platforms are TBA at this time, but the Wii U eShop has a pretty good chance of getting the game. A release is planned for 2013.

For the official Secrets of Raetikon announcement, head past the break.
