Curve Studios is wrapping up work on the Wii U exclusive title Stealth Inc 2. The game is said to be “in the final straits now”, according to the company’s Jonathan Biddle.
Biddle tweeted a status update for Stealth Inc 2 earlier today while also revealing that the game is about twice as big as the original.
He said:
Stealth Inc 2 has turned out huge. 182 rooms, over 500 screens in size. It's about 2 Stealth Inc 1s, which sounds somehow like it should be.

Phew! Stealth Inc 2 in the final straits now. All content and features done, just messy and buggy. Submission mere weeks away.

We've made this monster in only nine months too. Probably only possible because we made it all in GameMaker first to solidify the design.

Tetrobot and Co. is a puzzle title that landed on Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android late last year. It’s unclear if the Wii U version will bring anything new to the table.
Areal’s Kickstarter campaign has just taken a new turn for the worse. All funding for the game has been suspended, and it sounds like pledges are starting to be cancelled.
A message sent to backers states, “A review of the project uncovered evidence that it broke Kickstarter’s rules.”
Here’s the message in full:
Listings on Amazon have outed hardcover guides for both Hyrule Warriors
and Bayonetta 2
For Hyrule Warriors’ hardcover guide, Prima promises “High quality paper and unique cover treatments for collectibility”. The guide also features “an extensive behinds the scenes section, giving a closer look at the art behind Hyrule Warriors” as well as information on how to unlock the different characters and battle tactics.
An overview of the guide reads:
The Deer God met its Kickstarter funding goal last week. However, just a few hours ago, the campaign’s donations hit $40,000. This means that a Wii U version of The Deer God will now be made a reality.
A $55,000 3DS stretch goal was announced last week, but is unlikely to be met with just over a day remaining in the campaign.
As far as the game itself is concerned, The Deer God is a platformer “about survival, reincarnation, and karma, all set in a breathtaking and unique 3D pixelized world.” It’s targeted for launch in 2015.
