This weekend Rhod and I had the supreme fortune to attend the iDÉAME conference in Madrid. Not only did we meet the greatest collection of amazing Nintendo eShop developers ever assembled in one location, we also released the first ever two screenshots of Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails.

I know!

So here they are. The first is the view shown on the TV, with Scram Kitty celebrating your success (shown in the background). The second one is the view on the GamePad as you play. One day soon, we will explain what that all means in terms of the game design!

In the meantime,

Hey look! Today we’re announcing the remaking, remastering and remagicalising of both The 2D Adventures of Rotating Octopus Character and Floating Cloud God Saves the Pilgrims on the Playstation®Vita.

Both games are getting the full upgrade treatment for both art and audio to transform them into The HD Adventures of Rotating Octopus Character and Floating Cloud God Saves the Pilgrims in HD! respectively. We’re also adding PSN trophies to both, leaderboards to Rotating Octopus and touch controls to Cloud God.

But talk is cheap, so here are a few Rotating Octopus screenshots to keep you going until later in the year, when the games will be available on the Vita Store.

Hello, hello!

Today is a big day. We’ve announced via the medium of Eurogamer our brand new Wii U eShop game Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails.

It’s going really well, and we’ll be showing it off to anyone willing to look, soon enough!
For now it’s still too early to show any more of it than the lovely logo below.

Look, news.

This post was brought to you by the newly announced Dan, the actual one from the press release.

Hello!

We’ve been pretty quiet of late, preparing amazing things for the world (naturally).

The team’s growing and we’re working hard on a beautiful new game which you’ll be able to play in 2013! Be sure to come back for more updates in the new year.

Have a lovely holiday break, and a prosperous and happy 2013.

For Easter/Spring Break/Hanami/YourChoiceOfEvent, Gary has made this rather spectacular Vita wallpaper set. As a gift for you!

Floating Cloud God Saves The Pilgrims is available early for PlayStation Plus subscribers in Europe from April the 4th! For those of you who aren’t Plus subscribers, there are only a few weeks left to wait. And I bet you still haven’t cleared all of Rotating Octopus‘s challenge mode. Right?

You can set wallpaper per screen on the Vita, so there are three colourful, demon-filled images for you to stack atop each other. Like this:

Just click and save them, and then use the Vita content manager to get them over to your system.
