Trailer for Flipper 2: Flush The Goldfish, the 2D DSiWare title following up Goodbye Galaxy Games’ 3D, voxel-based puzzle platformer Flipper from last year.
Check out the built-in level editor! And the Ghosts’n Goblins-esque intro! Details on the gameplay variety:
“Flush starts at the left side of the room and moves automatically. You have one button that can be pressed to perform a action. The action differs from room to room
So it’s up to you to figure out what the action is, and how to use it to avoid the traps and enemies! There are over 300 rooms for you to complete!
In random castle mode, you can select your difficulty and theme and the game will generate a random castle! This is perfect for quick burst of handheld gaming!”

“Development is totally done, the game is at Nintendo and hopefully they will give me some good news really soon. The game is packed with a lot of content, and a second trailer is coming very soon to show all this off.”
Goodbye Galaxy Games’ Hugo Smits delivers an update about the status of Flipper 2, the DSiWare sequel that has now apparently been renamed Flush the Goldfish.
While the first Flipper was an isometric, touch-controlled game about manipulating the environment, this is a one-button platform action game in which each screen maps a different action to the single button.
Good luck, Hugo! Hope you survive Nintendo lot check! Those who haven’t given up on DSiWare would certainly like a new game for it.

First screenshots from Flipper 2, the sequel to Goodbye Galaxy Games’ DSiWare gem Flipper — if you open that link, you’ll notice that the two games look nothing alike.
GGG previously described Flipper 2 as a one-button 2D platformer with “explosions and score-points flying everywhere”. Controlling everything that’s going on in these screens with a single button looks like a challenge, but I’m eager to see how the studio pulls it off.
The developer explains:
“These screens reveal a few of Flipper’s unique actions, but I can assure you there are many more.. some of which I will show in the coming weeks!
Please note the banana gun; I promise you, nothing is more rewarding then seeing your enemies go down with a splashed banana in their face!”
While there’s no information yet on when this will release, you can pass the time until that announcement by buying the original Flipper for your Nintendo DSi.

All-new, all-different Flipper coming to DSiWare (indie game, not the dolphin)
I’m always worried that the indie developers (and even bigger studios) releasing games on DSiWare aren’t making back even half their money on sales, considering the lack of attention the digital download platform receives from both gamers and the lamestream media.
Goodbye Galaxy Games’ charming puzzle-action title Flipper must have sold a deecnt number of copies, though, as it wasn’t discouraged enough to dismiss the idea of releasing a sequel on DSiWare. Flipper 2 looks completely different from the original release, too!
