I think you mean December for your release dates rather than October ;) Looks cool, I'm always interested in trying new games. Before I buy though, I wanted to check: Does it support custom button mapping for the classic controller? I use my stick through a classic controller adapter, but as a result the default mapping in games usually isn't very good.

Oh yeah, the release dates are of course in December. That's what happens if you post to late in the night... :P

@HalfCent:
We haven't tried your setup. But it sounds like it 'should' work. Classic Controller is supported and we have a button config in the options menu. If you try it, please let me know if it worked out. :)

Might have to check this out. Friend of mine had the Xbox One version, which seemed pretty cool :mrgreen:

Ok cool, as long as there's button config I'll be fine. Hopefully I'll have some time to check it out tonight or tomorrow!

Seen from the trailer there was a slight delay in development? 2015 -> end 2016?

But still looks quite cool!

Thanks everyone. :)

A PC version is not planned yet. Might eventually, but at the moment it is rather unlikely. Sales haven't been so great so far, so every team member is already busy with other jobs & projects. Hence this very minor delay for the Wii-U version. :P

Real grateful for this WiiU port. Runs beautifully. But w/e happened to the ol' iOS release?

Thanks. :)

Surprisingly the iOS version was our least downloaded mobile version. (i think it was around 3000 downloads or something, which is pretty low for a free title). So, we didn't really support it afterwards anymore. The iOS release has been in 2013, I think.
