Spin the Bottle, KnapNok's Wii U party game that issues physical challenges to its players, will be released on the Wii U eShop this May, the developer told us this morning. If you happen to be attending GDC, you can find Spin the Bottle at GDC Play Kiosk 39, and make a fool of yourself (along with 2-7 others) on the show floor. It was named one of the 8 "Best in Play" games by GDC organizers.

The new video released this morning doesn't show off gameplay - almost all of that takes place offscreen anyway - but it does offer a look at the wiggly visuals, designed by Swedish studio Redgrim.

The Wii U is getting weirdo indie projects right from the jump. KnapNok Games, part of the Copenhagen Game Collective responsible for Dark Room Sex Game and B.U.T.T.O.N. (and associated with Johann Sebastian Joust developer Die Gute Fabrik) has revealed Spin the Bottle, a multiplayer party game that relies entirely on off-screen play - as in, the TV is turned off.

Players sit in a circle around the Wii U GamePad, and are paired up spin-the-bottle style to take part in Wiimote-based challenges that involve rapid-fire pointing, dancing, and whatever else is going on in this trailer. And don't expect it to be another We Dare. Spin the Bottle is an "innocent game for innocent kids," and should spin to Wii U next spring.
