Kid Icarus may be floating in limbo, but Over the Top Games is busy crafting a WiiWare title that might sate our appetites for winged heroes in ancient Greece. Icarian: Kindred Spirits is a 2D side-scrolling platformer where players control a girl named Nyx who has the ability to fly. Mythical beasts like harpies and hydras stand in the way of our heroine and her missing friend: Icarus. Zeus and the gods of Olympus will lend Nyx their power so she can change the environment or manipulate the wind.

Over the Top says the game is controlled with pointing and wrist movements. Two players will be able to participate cooperatively.
Icarian is the first effort from Over the Top Games, which is based in Madrid, Spain. A release date has not been announced but IGN hopes to have more info to share soon.
