The First Anniversary of 6180 the moon, and a Big Announcement for U.



March 9th is 6180 the moon’s first anniversary. Last year was a great year for the moon; in addition to launching our game successfully, we were selected for such renowned showcase events as the GDC and the E3 IndieCade. But that is past. Now, I am thrilled to announce more exciting moon-news.

6180 the moon will be released on the Nintendo Wii U this summer! When we met with Nintendo last year at E3, they loved our game. After talking for quite a while, we have finally decided to launch it on Nintendo eShop for Nintendo's Wii U System, at late Summer of 2014. 

We are almost done with porting 6180 the moon from GameMaker: Studio to Unity3D now. The game will be basically the same except for a few visual enhancements. In addition, the Wii U version will introduce new levels that takes advantage of both the TV and Wii U touchscreen. 

However I, PokPoong Games, am not porting the game. Turtle Cream is doing it by themselves with a programmer of their own. But I will continue to collaborate with Turtle Cream for the desktop PC version as well as the upcoming Mac and Ubuntu version.

So here’s the fun part: to celebrate our anniversary, 6180 the moon will be absolutely FREE for 4 days! You can download 6180 the moon for FREE on Desura, and get a deluxe package for 66% off price, which includes the game and the soundtrack. In addition, you will receive a free Steam key when we pass Greenlight. So please spread the word, and vote for us! Hope you enjoy the FREE moon. Good night!
