“Making a Wii U version of Armikrog was not part of our original budget, but so many people have been asking for it that we feel compelled to respond. “In order to make this happen, we’re announcing our first stretch goal of $950,000,” Ed Schofield, co-founder of Pencil Games, said, regarding the game’s Wii U version. Originally set to be restricted to PC, Mac and Linux, Nintendo of America has turned Armikrog developer Pencil Test into an officially licensed Nintendo developer, in the hopes of seeing a Wii U version of the game. It is the spiritual successor to The Neverhood and has been making waves on Kickstarter with its claymation charm, raising over $600,000 and earning praise from prominent developers such as Tim Schafer. If the stop-motion adventure game reaches its first Kickstarter stretch goal of $950,000, a Wii U version will be made.Īrmikrog is a stop-motion adventure game from Earthworm Jim creator Doug TenAple.
