Last Flight for Nintendo WiiWare, Nibris Ditch ROTR & Double Bloob

Some interesting news has emerged regarding two long-standing projects and a new game for Nintendo's WiiWare service. Apparently it seems that Nibris has confirmed that it has changed its plans and will no longer be bringing ROTR and Double Bloob from the DS to the Wii's download service. Instead the highly anticipated vertical shooter and the puzzle game will now be handled by a Third Party company called 'Blobber Team'.

This Blobber Team is currently hard at work on a new WiiWare project called 'Last Flight', in which players will take on the role of a food critic who is on an aircraft flight. Gamers will be attacked by a horde of vampires and will have to use their weapon of choice, a whip soaked in holy water to stun people. Once stunned, the enemies can be finished off by piercing their hearts with an old wooden stake.

Larry Adelman is the name of the game's main character and the person you will be controlling, whilst the game's theme is based around horror movies where blood and gameplay offer a little bit of point and click action, making extensive use of the Wii Remote. Everything will be illustrated using cel-shading methods to add a special style to the proceedings, and the game is set for release in the first quarter of 2009.

You have to wonder just what is happening to Nibris and its projects, and who is this Blobber Team. Cubed3 will endeavour to find out more in the near future...
