Little Inferno,as you might recall, is a new game in development from some of the folks behindWorld of GooandHenry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure. You ought to watch the embedded video; it starts out innocently enough, but quickly delves into a dark, dark place. I’msoin. The official websitehas a descriptionof gameplay: “Burn flaming logs, screaming robots, credit cards, batteries, exploding fish, unstable nuclear devices, and tiny galaxies.

Exterminate the heretics I’ve been interested inSpace Hulk: Deathwingever since they put out that trailer with thegroovy music from Kadebostanya few months back. Today, Streum On Studio (the same team who brought us the wonderfully strangeE.Y.E.: Divine Cybermancy) released a few new screenshots and details about the game that seem to validate my faith.

Back at E3 2012,our own Samit Sarkar reported an interesting tidbit of news: Nintendo was “working” on the ability to transfer old Wii digital software over to the Wii U.
