The internet wizard over at superannuation has uncovered some YouTube footage (embedded after the break) of the upcoming Blitz Arcade title CodaChain. The footage doesn't show much -- the quality isn't great -- aside from the player controlling a little dude with headphones as he gathers up a steadily growing line of characters behind him. According to the official description of the title, each character gathered by the player brings a different special ability and adds a new track to the background music. The player uses the characters' special abilities to solve puzzles. Additionally, the game is set to support 2-4 players both offline and online.

Platforms for the game haven't been specified by Blitz Arcade, but given that its recent Powerup Forever showed up on both PSN and XBLA, it's a fairly safe bet that CodaChain will as well.

Blitz Arcade, the casual component of Blitz Games (and the company behind the wonderfully ridiculous Burger King games), will display five new games designed for download services at this month's Casual Connect Conference. It isn't explicitly stated which services these games will be sold through, but they have been "developed to work across PC and console digital distribution platforms."

The games include:
  • KrissX: A collection of word games starring Wordsworth the Owl.
  • Encleverment Experiment: A minigame collection that tests "reflexes, memory, visual acuity and mental dexterity."
  • Buccaneer -- The Pursuit of Infamy: A pirate ship combat game for up to twelve players.
  • Droplitz: A puzzle game involving rotating dials to create paths. Similar to Pipe Dream.
  • CodaChain: A musical adventure game starring a DJ who must gather people with various skills to help solve puzzles, with online multiplayer.
CodaChain and Buccaneer sound like standouts, and we have absolutely no problem with more titles on WiiWare. The screens in our gallery are clearly from other platforms, but they at least demonstrate what each game looks like.
