psyscrolr is launching on the North American Wii U eShop next week, and it will be fairly inexpensive. The game will set you back just $3.99.
Here’s the official overview:
psyscrolr is a unique platformer with Wii U GamePad Touch Screen elements. In this title, you will play the Scrolr, a boy who has inherited a presence from another world, which gives him psychic powers that he neither wanted nor dreamed of. In the game, you will be helped by the voice of his powers in his head, narrating what is happening as well as assisting in combat. Utilize new mechanics to pull, push, and destroy any obstacle in your way. Enjoy a hub-based layout where you can replay the levels with no penalty for death!
Color Bombs will be RCMADIAX’s last Wii U game
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
RCMADIAX announced on Twitter today that Color Bombs will be the developer’s final title for Wii U.
“I’ll still be making games, but will be moving to a one or two game per year cycle to focus more on quality,” RCMADIAX said on Twitter. “Re-branding and trying to get rid of the ‘cheap trash game’ stigma that I have now been pegged with since Spikey Walls. I still plan to support the WiiU eShop with promotions, updates, etc. But sadly I had to stop production on some projects.”
Super Robo Mouse, which was one of the earliest Wii U titles RCMADIAX revealed for the eShop, is no longer planned for the system. The studio pointed to several reasons for this, including the fact that “The game’s later levels have really suffered in terms of performance.” Creator Michael Aschenbrenner explained, “I tried optimizing, but it meant I had to remove things.”

Xavier Orion Games has announced a retro-inspired project for Wii U titled “Super Booty Diver”. The game will be out on the eShop (and a couple of other platforms) this summer for $4.99.
Super Booty Diver is all about adventuring underwater while monitoring your air levels and acquiring currency known as “booty”. There will be shooting mechanics with limited ammo, 50 levels, and puzzle-like Boss Battles. Off-TV play will be supported, and Super Booty Diver sports a chiptune soundtrack.

Towards the end of 2013, Two Tribes asked if fans would be interested in seeing Toki Tori 1 on 3DS. The studio has posted several hints on its Twitter account about the possibility since then, and it looks like we now have a confirmation that it’s happening.
Based on a Twitter message earlier month, we seem to have solid confirmation that Toki Tori 1 is coming to the 3DS. Two Tribes and Engine Software are teaming up for the release. As it turns out, it’s the first collaboration between the two companies in over twenty years.
In other news, we made some good progress on Toki Tori 1 3DS today, together with Ivo from @EngineSoftware!
