Pure Nintendo: "I respect the challenge this game offers, and for those who embrace difficulty as the primary focus, Chubbins is a solid enough game in spite of its constant nature. I want to say that while $5.99 is inexpensive, it still feels a bit overpriced for what seems to be a pretty straight port of a budget iOS game. I think a sale would be beneficial. Retro inspired difficult platformers aren’t exactly in short supply for Nintendo fans, so Chubbins is only average at best on the Wii U. It’s a repetitive game, throwing most of its eggs in the difficulty basket as the expense of interesting level design and console optimization. I’m hopeful that Dahku Creations next mobile port will make greater strides on Wii U."
Dahku has announced today that their precision platformer Chubbins has been rebranded as Rotund Takeoff, and it will be coming to the Nintendo Switch eShop on June 17th, 2021.

"Chubbins is an interesting and challenging game that fans of platforms could easily enjoy. It’s not without faults – moments of unreasonable challenge and generic art – though it could easily provide you with some great entertainment should you give it a chance."
"Chubbins is a tight platformer that does a great job of capturing the coveted old-school feel. If you’re the type of gamer that’s always lusting for a challenge, then look no further. It may look cute on the outside, and it is fairly short, but Chubbins packs a mean punch. Don't say I didn't warn you." - Nintendo Feed
