Moon Chronicles has been officially submitted to Nintendo. Assuming all goes well with the rest of the process, we should be seeing the game out in April or May.
Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham tweeted:
Moon Chronicles has been submitted to Nintendo. Now we wait. I expect we'll be looking at a April/May release (sorry for the vagueness).

Watsham also confirmed an official block size for Moon Chronicles:
The Nintendo tool thingy tells me that Moon Chronicles will be 1390 blocks – not too shabby for an epic adventure ON THE MOON!! 🙂
