Captain Quack: I Pity the Stool is a new Wii U eShop title from Homebody Games. Players assume the role of Captain Cornelius Quack, who is on a revenge quest “on anything and everything around him for polluting his pond and destroying his loved ones.” The gameplay? It’s about pooping on people. Really.

Captain Quack: I Pity the Stool is planned for release in Q1 2017. A trailer and additional information can be found below.

Description:
Captain Quack: I Pity the Stool is a combination of arcade shooter and puzzle-esque gameplay. It’s solely developed by Grant Potter. You play as Captain Cornelius Quack, who’s seeks revenge on anything and everything around him for polluting his pond and destroying his loved ones. You’re a duck and you poop on people.

Features:

• Vibrant hand-drawn artwork
• Toe-tapping original soundtrack, with over 50 tracks inspired by the wonderful soundtracks of Mario, Kirby, Sonic, Blaster Master, Mega Man, and more
• Main Campaign: Help Quack on his stool-fueled expedition across five diverse areas of the world: The Parklands, Sun Nova Beach, Bona Fide Countryside, Synchrono City, and Sludge Works Inc.
• Over 25 unique encounters/levels
• Various attacks and abilities to achieve
• Hidden costumes and hovercrafts for Quack to unlock
• Secret areas to discover, each with their own set of encounters and bosses
• Perfect your speed and accuracy as you fight for high scores
• Dumb micro mini-games derived from my favorite NES classics

Yesterday, Nintendo shared an image on Twitter showing what the rest of the year is looking like for indie games. The company shared an updated lineup for both Wii U and 3DS.

For the most part, these titles were already known. There do seem to be a few new ones there though like Rocket Fist and Dub Wars. Overall, the lineup is shaping up to be rather nice!

Thanks to Jake for the tip.
