The game is a 2.5D platformer, and its being made by a four man team of indie developers, which is awesome that games like this, and World Of Goo can be made by only a few people. The story does have a Greek influence, but its not based on Kid Icarus. You use the Wiimote/Nunchuk to fly Nyx who’s the main character in the game and you, or a second player can use the IR to control the “gifts from the gods” power ups, because the game has a 2 Player co-op mode. The gifts from the gods are different types of shots, they can also let you move big objects and they can also control the wind ala LostWinds.</p><p> </p><p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.twgnintendo.com/home/wp-content/uploads/iks12.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></p> <p style="text-align: center"></p> <p style="text-align: center"></p><p> </p><p> <strong><strong>4.

He’s a short, chubby, bald man who distinguishes himself by using sharp language and a dark sense of humor. On the same plane sitting next to Larry, is Anna.
