Owlboy, YIIK, Nine Parchments Revealed For Switch
« on: May 18, 2017, 03:51:50 PM »

In of all things, a Cat Mario video.

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/news/44666/owlboy-yiik-nine-parchments-revealed-for-switch

A video on the Japanese-language Nintendo YouTube account has revealed a host of new indie titles for the Switch.

The video is part of the "Cat Mario" series and refers to "Nyandies" ahead of this weekend's BitSummit indie game festival in Japan. Among the footage of released and announced titles is the first console footage of Owlboy, a Steam release from late last year that was in development for a decade. Also shown in the video are previous Wii U title YIIK and the newest title from Has-Been Heroes/Trine developers Frozenbyte, Nine Parchments, plus footage of RIME and Mighty Gunvolt Burst.

No release timeframes have been given for any of these titles, but news on them will come over the next few weeks.

Good god. Nyandies. What is going on.

That said... My poor wallet. I will be buying all these games.
Carmine Red, Associate Editor

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

About Nine Parchments
 
A group of drop-out wizard apprentices decide to skip their training for a quick path to the Nine Parchments.

As the wannabe wizards rapidly discover powerful new spells and ignore all safety aspects, it's natural that their hasty progress results in lots of unwanted deaths...
