Wow, it's great to see they've nearly passed their goal already, and about 20% of their highest stretch goal. It's good to see developers asking for reasonable donations like $30k... and not, you know, over a million dollars.

I wonder why they don't just put a definite Wii U port as a stretch goal instead of saying they really really want to do it but might not be able to.

Anyway it looks like they're probably going to meet most of their stretch goals, so that's cool for them. :)

Already passed the $30k goal!

This games has a lot of potential, hope they meet of all their goals, and maybe even add some more.

It looks really nifty. I love the aesthetics and the characters are adorable. Just wish it wasn't so platforming heavy.

Some games deserve Kickstarter funds and this seems to be one of them.

Oh btw here's what they had to say about the Wii U version:

"A lot of you are asking why we aren't adding Wii U as a stretch goal, and to be honest, we really want to! But unfortunately, despite the Nintendo eShop's ability to self-publish, our game engine does not support Wii U with the license that we have!
That is why we might need help getting the game on other platforms than Windows and Mac! As you can hear, it is quite a rut we're in, but we'll definitely let you know when we are ready to support Wii U! We really want to make it possible during the Kickstarter period! Rest assured that we'll do everything to get on the Wii U!"

Maybe the license is too expensive? They are using the Unreal Engine.

Lighting seems a bit off at times but nothing they can't fix.

Seems really really nifty. I'd love to see this come to the WiiU at somepoint. Will likely pick it up if it does.

This game looks great! the graphics remember me a lot of Wind Waker, I hope it gets a Wii U version!



 

 

 

Looks grrrreat - Wii U por favor



     
Games can and should tell stories and share ideas through their mechanics. This is the intrinsic element of the medium and this is how experiences should be crafted in video games. No company does this as well as Nintendo and their echoes from the past.

Although they can't promise anything yet there's hope for a Wii U version, this is what they said:

"There's also some good news on the Wii U front! We're currently talking to a publisher who might be interested in providing us with a full UDK license, allowing us to compile the game for the Wii U! We can't guarantee anything yet, and there is a chance it might still be expensive, but we'll keep you posted!"
