Check out Furry Legends, a new WiiWare title coming your way photo

An attractive game for WiiWare that isn't a puzzle game, you say? Bring it on! Gamelion Studios is behind the upcoming Furry Legends, which the developers describe as "A mix of Sonic, LocoRoco, Mario and some LittleBigPlanet". Well, those things all sound good to me!

The platformer puts you in the role of a fuzzy character who is trying to escape from an evil tribe called the Cube'y Squaries. The devs also promise a story that will dig into the backgrounds of the characters, as well as controls that use the Wiimote and nunchuk. Pricing and release dare specifics are still unconfirmed, although Gamelion say they are shooting between the 3rd and 4th quarter of 2009.

Check out the newest trailer for Furry Legends after the jump. Do want, or will you pass on this one?

A WiiWare title that isn't of the puzzle variety? What is this shit? Looks sort of interesting, though.

Furry Friends? Can't help to think about other stuff, not a game.

Oh puberty why didn't you end?!

The gameplay looks kinda similar to Night Game, another wiiware game in the works.

And the art style reminds me of Lost Winds. Neither is a bad thing if it works.

Speaking of, we're overdue for Lost Winds 2 dammit!

If it wasn't clear before that the Wii has cornered the ball-rolling aficionado market, well...

I really don't like how the ball has that smile frozen in the face...

A bit off topic but I wish Lost Winds was a retail title

The music is very soothing and the platforming seems alright. But seeing the word "Furry" in the title is going to...create a medley of discussions on the internet. And like Monodi said, I am weirded out by the frozen smile.

Would I play it? Yes, I would. Would I be undoubtedly disturbed as that ball stares at me, wanting my soul? Very.

It looks good. Not quite getting the furry part. Not sure if I want to.

It's like they are trying to make all WiiWare games have ridiculous names. But then, this one for a different reason than most.

Change the title of the game, and maybe I'll give it a try.

Whoever came up with the title is clearly not up to date on their internet culture.
