Indie developer 4 Corner Games has announced I’ve Got To Run for the Wii U eShop.
I’ve Got To Run is a 2D platformer with procedurally generated endless runner elements. Players control Roy the Marshmellow Boy in three different modes: Endless Classic, Endless Double, and Endless Special.
The first, Endless Classic, is your typical one-jump experience. Endless Double features a double jump, while Endless Special contains speed up and speed down power-ups.
All three modes ensure that there are no impossible jumps. It only takes a fraction of a second if you do fail, however.
Aside from I’ve Got to Run’s three modes, there’s also Miiverse support to track high scores and an in-game page made for posting to the community so you can compare with other players. 60 frames per second is supported on the TV and GamePad.
I’ve Got To Run will be available in North America in Q2 for $1.99. A European release is also a possibility, though no specific plans have been announced for the continent.
Circle Entertainment has confirmed plans to bring Parking Star 3D to the 3DS eShop. In total, the game will offer 40 levels.
Circle Entertainment shared the news about Parking Star 3D on Twitter earlier today:

We had previously heard that Azure Striker Gunvolt was tentatively slated for a summer launch in North America (in addition to Japan), but that’s now been made official. Inti Creates CEO Takuya Aizu confirmed to Siliconera that the title will in fact be available in the states this summer. A European release is also being considered, though it would likely come later given how the game will need to be localized into several different languages.
Thanks to LetsPlayWiiU for the tip.
