Announcing PixlCross from PixlBit Studios

Nick and Chessa made a game and it's gone gold! Also, Steam Greenlight - vote yes (please)!

As some of you may know, Chessa and I have been working on a game for roughly the past year. We became official Wii U developers around September of last year and began the true development cycle of our first game, PixlCross. We've come a long way and as of last week, we officially submitted the game to Nintendo's certification process, Lotcheck!

We're not sure how long that process is going to take, but it should be coming out within a month or so on the eShop for all of you Wii U owners out there. We've also begun the next leg of our journey, which is getting a PC/Mac/Linux release together and (hopefully) releasing on Steam via Steam Greenlight. We'd very much appreciate your vote if you think it looks like something you'd enjoy. And if you think it's really great, please, tell your friends too!

Below you'll find a trailer for the game that goes through all of its major features and highlights some of the stuff we built that we're proud of. Let us know what you think and if you have any questions/comments, we'd love to talk more about it. Thanks everyone!

That's so exciting!  I know I said this before, but I really want to review this for GamerDad.com when it comes out on Wii U!

Kevin Macleod - incompetech.com. We basically went through his archives and found stuff that we thought fit. It's all free, requiring only attribution.

Thanks for the vote, and the Tweet! Hoping we make it on there as well.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Review

It’s been a long time since we’ve seen an entry in the Metroid Prime series - 18 years, in fact. It was 8 years ago that Metroid Prime 4 was originally announced and its development was more than a little turbulent. Initially developed by Bandai Namco, it was later scrapped completely and development was shifted back to Retro Studios to start the project over. In the end, Retro has delivered a solid new entry in the series, but one that doesn’t totally capture what originally made the series so compelling.
