Indie developer Taylor Hajash has decided to move on from the world of game development. On Wii U, Hajash worked on the eShop release Tiny Galaxy.

In a Tumblr post, Hajash explained that creating games is an extremely tough process, which doesn’t always lead to the highest degree of success. He’s now moving onto comic books as another one of his passions.

You may recall that a fairly substantial update was planned for Tiny Galaxy. As of now, it’s unclear what will happen to it. Hajash said “Nintendo just straight up won’t respond to my emails or attempted contact to find out what all they need for the Wii U update”, so it’s currently in limbo.

Head past the break to read up on Hajash’s full message.

Arcane Pixel has confirmed plans to bring Tiny Galaxy to Europe. This will be “The Do Over” version of the game, which features enhanced visuals, bug fixes, changes, and new mechanics. There’s no word on a release date yet, but the developer will share news as soon as it’s been determined.

Sometime in the future, Tiny Galaxy will be receiving a pretty major update. Those who purchased the game will be able to grab the new version at no extra cost.

Arcane Pixel is remaking Tiny Galaxy entirely. The game will feature improved visuals, lowered difficulty, fixed hit boxes on all sprites, and a redesigned level select menu. A new start menu will also be included, along with more/better animations, audio fixes, and general bug fixes.

Challenge levels are also being added as new content, which can be unlocked in each world. While the main courses are estimated to be about a third less difficult, “challenge levels will be more brutal than the current build of Tiny Galaxy,” according to Arcade Pixel. That’s on top of a redone opening sequence and more story scenes. Arcade Pixel has also teased “a few other features or changes being made,” but the developer is keeping quiet on those for now as they’ve yet to be fully implemented.

Tiny Galaxy creator Taylor Hajash took to Twitter a few days ago and shared some news about an update planned for the game. The patch will address some small issues and graphical problems, along with a balance in difficulty.

A permanent price drop for Tiny Galaxy is also planned. In the near future, it will be reduced to $2.99.

Tiny Galaxy developer Arcane Pixel is bring its next game known as “Kick Assteroids” to the Wii U eShop very soon.

The game features two modes: Survive and Defend. In the former mode, players need to survive as long as they can against enemies and meteors while aiming for a high score. The other mode puts the emphasis on defending a satellite from enemies and asteroids for as long as possible. As your score increases, you’ll automatically receive ship upgrades, better guns, a faster ship, and more.

For those that are interested, Kick Assteroids will support off-TV play. The title also includes an 8-bit, fast-paced metal soundtrack.

Watch a trailer for Kick Assteroids below. It’ll be out soon on the North American Wii U eShop for $1.99.

Tiny Galaxy won’t be out on the Wii U eShop until next week, but the game’s file size has already come in. You’ll need 123 MB free in order to download the game. Definitely not a huge title, but not the smallest eShop download either!
