    NEW: Yacht Club Games needs a hit. In recent years the maker of Shovel Knight has had to lay off staff, pause a 3D project, and delay their next game indefinitely. The good news is that Mina the Hollower could be special. For Businessweek, this is their story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

    I think it's worth pointing out that very few video-game companies are as transparent as Shovel Knight maker Yacht Club Games, and I appreciate that the studio was so candid about their story and why their next game, Mina the Hollower, has taken so long www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

    Current plan is to stream a new game, Mina the Hollower, tomorrow at noon CST. I was interested knowing it was by the Shovel Knight devs, but even better, I found out it's apparently an homage to old GameBoy era Zelda titles, and those were some of my favorite games growing up.

    We played and discussed Pipistrello. Go play Pipistrello. This is an indie game every bit as good as the big ones being glazed this year. Pocket Trap released as good as something like a Shovel Knight or even Minish Cap itself. Yoko Shimomura did a song in this game! www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4JN...

    This Shovel Knight run on GDQ reminds me... I'm starting to worry about Yacht Club as a studio. Their last in-house game was Shovel Knight, released over a decade ago. Mina The Hollower missed Halloween and has no release date set now, and no mention of Shovel Knight Deluxe in ages. I'm concerned.
