Nintendo Enthusiast has had a lot of content dropping on their site lately covering Armillo including the Indie Corner feature last week and Shawn’s article on the games that inspired it. In their third and final piece, Shawn and Jason catch up with Fuzzy Wuzzy Games’ Yanni to discuss the release of Armillo, the creative process behind it and what’s next for the studio.
"Games like Armillo are what set the Nintendo eShop apart from other digital distribution platforms. Inspired by established and beloved franchises, they are unique to Nintendo’s system and contain their own set of distinctive traits that differentiate themselves from the competition."
"Shake your head all you want but the fact just simply remains that even after the introduction of Wiiware and eShop; the realm of indie games is still strange territory for Nintendo to cross—at least it seems like it with the way they’re going about it.
Thankfully, the big N is still trying to improve their approach towards their relationship in indie game distribution, and one of the products that’s especially benefited from their efforts in this campaign of exposure is an indie game about a space armadillo—a friggin’ sweet space armadillo.
Fuzzy Wuzzy Game’s Armillo channels the light-hearted spirit of character driven games of the 32-bit era, and humbly creates an adorably minimalistic atmosphere of challenge and colors that will universally appeal to the simple instincts and drive of platforming in a surprisingly intriguing way."

I seem to like things in threes, much like many people do in many industries. Having said that, my third and final (for now!) indie review is upon us!
I review Armillo, a Wii U exclusive (at least for the time being) indie game brought to us by Fuzzy Wuzzy Games. How does it play? Is it worth your $6?
Well, maybe you’ll just have to watch my video review to find out!
