Dahku Creations bringing Chubbins to Wii U

Dahku Creations has is developing Chubbins for Wii U, the studio has announced.

Originally, Chubbins hit iOS last year. The platformer’s eShop release will boast a few new additions/improvements, all of which are covered in depth below:

Addition of Time Attack Mode
As one might expect, Time Attack mode will allow the player to tackle levels individually as they are unlocked by playing through the worlds normally, with the eventual unlocking of a Boss Rush. In addition to setting individual level records, this will also serve as a good way to practice specific levels for achieving better times in standard Modes.

Renaming of ‘Casual’ and ‘Classic’ Modes to ‘Soft’ and ‘Hard’
Originally Chubbins released with only the ‘Classic’ Mode of play, but a short while later we updated with ‘Casual’ that included numerous checkpoints throughout the levels to decrease difficulty and increase its pick-up-and-play value, among other tweaks. With the renaming of these Modes, ‘Hard’ will remain true to the original ‘Classic’ while ‘Soft’ will feature new aids for beginner players, including visible paths for moving platforms and player tips provided throughout World 1.

Miscellaneous Features
We’re making a number of minor improvements here and about, such as increasing the max time counter from 1 to 2 hours for those who found the game especially difficult. A couple of levels have also received very minor edits to decrease potential confusion. And naturally, such an update also squashes a few bugs and makes a couple of visual upgrades.

We’ll have more on Chubbins early next month.
