<p>The Wii U currently has an indie developed game for pyromaniacs of all ages, in the form of <em>Little Inferno,</em> but Teku Studios wants to add their own fire-centric game titled <em>Candle</em> to the eShop as well.</p>
<p><em>Candle</em> is a Kickstarter project for the studio, which is aiming for a grand total of $40,000. However, the project also features several stretch goals for if they exceed said amount, and the Wii U version will be made if the stretch goal of $85,000 is met. If the game doesn&#8217;t reach its goal, Teku is reassuring Wii U owners that they will see a version of <em>Candle</em> released at some point or another.</p>
<p>Lead programmer Miguel Valles said that the main focus right now is on meeting the $40,000 goal, so they can get it further into development, published, and out for players to buy. Then, they can focus on the Wii U version, if the budget is there.</p>
<p>One source that spoke to Valles said that <em>Candle </em>is inspired by such games as <em>Flashback</em> or <em>Out of This World,</em> and involve mechanics like those seen in <em>Abe&#8217;s Odyssey</em>. The main protagonist of the game is a shaman, who ironically has a candle for a hand (much like classic Lumière from <em>Beauty and the Beast</em>) and his goal is to keep the candle alight. Teku hopes to deliver a calm, puzzle solving experience with flair.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re curious and want to learn more about this interesting game, head over to their Kickstarter page and see if it&#8217;s worth a pledge.</p>
