Nobody's poisson: Wolfire cancel Overgrowth for SMALL TANK

smalltank.jpg

Indie dev Wolfire -- the team behind those always excellent Design Tour videos -- have used April 1st to announce that their anthropomorphic animal 3rd person adventure Overgrowth has been deemed too niche even for the indies, and that they're instead focusing their attention on hyper-cute World War 2 action game Small Tank for OnLive, XBox Live Arcade, Playstation Network, Steam and WiiWare.

The problem? It kind of looks brilliant -- somewhere between Advance Wars, Metal Gear and the maligned 3D entry in the Metal Slug series -- and I actually want to play. Maybe next year, guys?
