This just in fromNightSky‘s publisher’s Twitter— “Did we already mention Pixel wrote the story toNightSky? Yes, the same Pixel who gave the worldCave Story.” This news comes to us right on the cusp of thegame’s January 6th release date, so there’s very little time for youCave Storyfans to get hyped (but I think you’ll manage just fine).

Also from Nicalis’s Twitter is the news on the proposed console versions of the game — “We haven’t given up on consoles for it, but we’d like to see what everyone thinks of the game on PC/Mac.” Sounds like it could go either way at this point. Personally, I hope the game still comes to WiiWare. Well implemented motion controls can really accentuate the experience with physics-based platformers such as this.
