Harrowing Survival RPG, Impact Winter, Could Come to Wii U

The developer of Siesta Fiesta has launched a Kickstarter campaign for Impact Winter, which is equal parts Oregon Trail and Fallout.

Mojo Bones has launched a new Kickstarter campaign for their upcoming game, Impact Winter.

Impact Winter is a survival RPG that tasks players with enduring a frozen apocalypse for 30 days, until help arrives from a mysterious benefactor. Based on early images, Impact Winter is a stark departure from Mojo Bones’ last project, the charming Siesta Fiesta, which released earlier this summer on the Nintendo 3DS eShop.

The survivors of the apocalyptic event that blanketed the world with snow have to manage their hunger, temperature, hydration and more while attempting to stay alive until rescue. And staying alive is of the utmost importance; each NPC character offers unique skills, from item crafting to curing wounds. If a character dies, you lose his or her skills for the rest of your game. Effectively dealing with illness, depression, and attacks from wildlife while you explore and endure the dynamic landscape is required to keep your small band of survivors alive.

Impact Winter is currently slated for release on PC, Linux and Mac, but the Kickstarter campaign does have a stretch goal that would bring the game to Wii U. As of this writing, the campaign has a little less than a month left to reach its funding goal. You can read more about Impact Winter on Kickstarter.

Looks fairly interesting, my first thought when reading about this game was the Lost In Blue games for the DS.  This seems a little darker and with a little more to it, but is definitely something I'd be interested in if it's as good as they make it out to be.  Hopefully it reaches the stretch goal.
