Icarian: Kindred Spirits Announced for WiiWare

Newly formed Studio Over The Top Games have announced their debut title Icarian: Kindred Spirits exclusively for WiiWare. The 2.5D platform/adventure game will play and look similar to Kid Icarus and Lost Winds, also of WiiWare fame.

The official blurb for the game unveiled in the press release goes as follows, Experience with ICARIAN: KINDRED SPIRITS™ the awesome story of Nyx, an enigmatic winged girl, that must descend from heaven in search of her missing friend Icarus.

Overfly the ruins of ancient Greece and avoid falling into blazing sands or perishing in the claws of cruel harpies and hydras. You will need the help of Zeus and other benevolent Gods from Olympus to summon their powers. They will let you cast rays, modify the scenery and control winds at your wish... With your own wrist movements and pointing to the game screen, you will be able to achieve these and many other feats in this new and enjoyable Wii™ platform game.
