Shapes of Gray heading to Wii U in early 2015
Posted 9 years ago by Brian in News, Wii U eShop | 3 Comments
Secret Tunnel Entertainment is bringing its PC action-arcade game “Shapes of Gray” to Wii U. A release is planned for early 2015.
Here’s an official overview of Shapes of Gray from the game’s developer:
Shapes of Gray is a fast-paced, stripped-down arcade game where you descend through a series of seconds-long levels, with a unique combat-puzzle in each one. I’ve heard it described as “the WarioWare of Dark Souls,” which I think is fitting.
For example, one level might pit your gray blob against two highly-explosive circles and an almighty square, who can only be defeated by slashing the weak point on his back. You could take care the two circles separately and then maneuver around to the square’s backside–but with only a few seconds to clear the level, wouldn’t it be smarter (and faster!) to bat one of the circles into the square to destroy him in the ensuing explosion?
Shapes of Gray for Wii U will add new modes, levels, and unlockables. Additionally, Secret Tunnel Entertainment is including off-TV play and Miiverse support.
More information about Shapes of Gray will be shared in the coming weeks.

Azure Striker Gunvolt introduces rival character Acura
Posted 9 years ago by Brian in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
The latest Azure Striker Gunvolt update comes from Famitsu, who introduces rival character Acura.
Acura is “a psychic hunter who does not belong to any faction, but harbors a strong hatred towards the Sumeragi Group psychics. While he does not possess any psychic powers of his own, he is able to steal and analyze the psychic power factors of other psychics. He wields a weapon that mimics such powers and stands in Gunvolt’s way.”
Screenshots of Acura can be found above.

Flowerworks HD dev talks sales and future plans
Posted 9 years ago by Brian in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Nocturnal Entertainment’s Michael Shamgar has shared a sales update for Flowerworks HD: Follie’s Adventure. Although no specific figures were revealed, Shamgar did offer the following information to Nintendo Life:
- US sales started strongly, but tailed off rapidly after the initial launch sale ended. Price has now been dropped to $4 USD.
- European sales have been a real surprise — released two and half months later in EU — outselling the US lifetime figures by 50% within 3 weeks.
- Total sales are now close to 50% WiiWare (unit) lifetime sales, which has been available for around 5 years.
Nocturnal does have an idea in mind for its next games. The studio is currently working on a story-focused title, though “a smaller, simpler arcade game” may come first.
According to Shamgar:
We have a “story-driven” game in the concept stage, but that’s likely to be a big project that may need a lot of funding and development effort.
We may release a smaller, simpler arcade game based around user-generated content (level editor will come with the game). I’m very interested in the potential of using the GamePad for all forms of user content creation, extending to a complete game creation system.
