Nothing! I said nothing!
What does that mean?
He never heard of the game.
Not really. Its a tablet game and why it is $6.

Who is going to market it though, its an indie game.

It is seemingly only out in the US on Thursday, Europe + other regions have to wait?
Changing console region is quite easy though
Due to ID@Xbox starting later the first game didn't ship until April and this is the second, the third is STF next week. There are other titles coming soon like Sixty Second Shooter Prime and Contrast though plus some others

ID@Xbox is MS self publishing solution, so far this will be the second game to be self published on xbox one.
Well this is the second to be released. The first was Strike Suit Zero DC. They are ramping up releases starting next month from what Chris Charla has said.

I bet PEGI classification has something to do with it, know that held up Sixty Second Shooter Prime a little bit.

Win8 version is free due to microtransactions, this version has everything included afaik from what I was told at PAX
I've never heard of the game before, and the only marketing it gets is some innocuous tweet two days before it launches.
Anyway, it looks decent for an indie title, but $6.49 is not worth the price of admission. Should have made it F2P, would been more open to it.

How many ID@Xbox games are coming out again?

Looks more like Crystal Castles with special abilities. Collect all the things before you get caught. Something like this works better for the mobile market than playing it on your tv.

Over 200.

I wish they would just make another Keflings like game. Girlfriend still asks if a new one is ever going to come out.

Same here, I assume they will in the future, just don't think they have any plans for it at the moment.

US only today at some point is all we know. I just checked the marketplace and it's not there still.

Ya, it was ported over from Windows 8, where it was a F2P game with microtransactions. Designed for tablet play it seems, but it works just fine with the X1 controller from what I played at PAX.
Heh, I enjoyed Shadow Assault. One of my earliest 200/200 games. Was like a stealth loveletter to Trap Gunner. I don't think traps will be as important in this game, unfortunately!
Eh, naaa. Fine if you like it more on mobile, but I think consoles have just as much reason to have games like this. I'm glad to have the option to play this with others able to easily observe and join in on the fun. Especially with a variety of price points.
I'd prefer another Band of Bugs, personally! Was great having an SRPG-light on the system, and it's still one of the only ones to really make it out onto all of XBLA. Keflings is getting a Wii U port, however, so at least it's still remembered! Maybe it'll have some new stuff too? I was also surprised how much Akimi Village on PSN looks to be a Kefling-clone...

Anyway, Nutjitsu looks interesting enough. I wish it had more of that SNES era pizzazz and energy, with everything being vibrant and full of personality and animation... but most of those games, regardless of how simple to play, were $40 / $60 productions; this is less than $10.
Much like Peggle 2, I get the feeling that the game is heading in the right direction, but isn't quite as robust with it's personality as I'd like, in a bunch of small ways. But maybe I'll like it more once I get to play it! I miss XBLA guaranteed release times, though XB1 NORMALLY lets us get things a bit sooner.

Reminds me of a mix between Pac-man and Zoom! for the Mega Drive. May pick this up as its kid friendly.
Should be up soonish...
I will never understand how Microsoft and Sony seem to act like every "Publish now!" moment on their platforms is web update day 1. You think they'd have mastered this stuff by now! At least Nintendo's 12pm publish is pretty consistent.
At any rate, good to know it'll appear soon; Thanks for the update!

Keflings? Band of Bugs? NeoGaffers plz, we need Cloning Clyde 2
And I hate how it's gotten WORSE lately. I used to love staying up and watching the XBLA demos and stuff pop up within 10 min of that certain hour.
Now demos to Arcade games appear later than the game releases. Ugh. It's just gotten so much sloppier, which is a shame, as the games have generally become much better!
I like how Xbox One generally has games start appearing around 11/12pm EST of the day BEFORE things come out, I just wish this was the rule, rather than the exception. Of course, I also wish they'd be smart, and put the game's info page up a week before release, so people could see press-uploaded Game DVR and Screenshots direct on system, without having to use youtube or websites.
ANYWAY... will be looking for that Nutjitsu now!

Never got into it, even if it was an early XBLA darling. Same with Outpost Kaloki X. Though I enjoyed that early Smash Bros. style game... Forget it's name ATM. Reminded me of Kung Fu Chaos, which I also enjoyed.
Ooga Booga seemed to appear and die without as much as a wimper... wasn't it to be a CC spiritual successor?
I hope this doesn't become a trend. Max was also delayed in a few markets.

It is remarkably easy to switch regions on XB1, but I agree.
