Team Meat is working on a new game, and while it’s not coming to the 3DS, perhaps it’ll launch for Nintendo’s new console instead. The studio posted a teaser of their project earlier today without revealing any concrete information. However, they later posted on Twitter that the game is being created for Wii U.
Given Team Meat’s rocky history with Wii, you have to wonder if that tweet was simply a joke. Then again, it’d be fantastic for them to consider Wii U and offer something to fans of the Big N.
July 27, 2011 – London, Ontario – Big Blue Bubble Inc. announced today that Burn the Rope, the smash hit iPhone game with over 5 million downloads, will be setting Nintendo’s WiiWare service ablaze.
Now players can enjoy burning rope from the comfort of their living room! Just sit back on the couch and play Burn the Rope on the big screen with high resolution graphics, unique motion controls, and all the fiery fun of the original game.Burn the Rope is a challenging game where you try to burn as much rope as you can in each level. There’s a catch! The fire only burns upwards, leaving you to rotate the level to keep your flame alive! As you progress through the levels, you’ll encounter different bugs crawling along the rope, each with their own unique reactions to the flame. For example, the ant changes the color of the flame so you can burn the corresponding colored ropes, and the spider shoots out a web bridge so you can access parts of the level that you could not before.
