Those of you lucky enough to get your hands on a Wii in the past few months are likely thankful to Konami for its early investment in the console. Last year, the company had one of the finest launch-window games in the form of Elebits, a fun, light-hearted romp that made great use of the Wii controller. Elebits turned out to be a sleeper hit, increasing the notoriety of the game's producer, Shingo Mukaitoge. A few months ago -- at the Konami Gamers Day -- Mukaitoge announced the development of Dewy's Adventure, a new Wii-exclusive title headed to the console later this year. Recently, Konami was kind enough to stop by our offices with the latest build of the game so that we could do the dew for ourselves.

Dewy's Adventure has a look and feel that is somewhat similar to Elebits. The game centers on an animated dew droplet charged with saving the world from the forces of the maniacal Don Hedron. Dewy (as the lead has been so cleverly dubbed) happens to be the last surviving hope the world has of defeating Don Hedron and eliminating his Dark Water from this world. To rid the earth of this blight, Dewy must traverse a series of platform stages while solving puzzles, fending off baddies, and cleaning up puddles of Dark Water.
