by Dana Abercrombie1

It’s been a while but Playtonic Games has revealed the brand new title for Project Ukulele; say hello to Yooka-Laylee, the spiritual successor to Banjo-Kazooie.

Players will get their hands on, Yooka, a rolling/attacking chameleon who uses his tongue like a grappling hook. He is partnered with Laylee, a bat who can fly around with Yooka and launches sonar blasts at enemies. Together they have various abilities to take out those who get in their way.

Those who like what they see, can donate to the game’s Kickstarter page starting May 1st. Those who pledge £10 / $15 will receive the game.

There are also plans to release soundtracks, art books, and a special 64-bit special edition.

If the goal is reached, Yooka-Laylee is planned to release for PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Wii U.

Former genius and a woman of mystery and power, whose power is exceeded only by her mystery, Dana Abercrombie has been watching movies since birth (yes birth...we did say "genius"). Despite her secret desire of wanting to give it all up to become a gorgeous billionaire, Dana is most passionate politics about movies often times getting in many heated debates resulting in being thrown out of many gatherings. Despite having a degree in English AND Journalism (multi-tasking FTW!) from the University at Albany-SUNY, she is currently interested in perusing a degree at Yale Law School, because one should never give up on a dream of becoming a gorgeous billionaire...and knowing how to sue someone as a result of those heated debates.
