The oceanic, turn-based RPG series Squids (http://www.joystiq.com/game/squids) is riding a current to the 3DS and Wii U eShop this fall in Squids Odyssey.
The port is a remake of the two existing Squids games (http://thegamebakers.com/games), Squids and Squids Wild West. The series follows the species' efforts to save the ocean from a black ooze pollutant that turns sea life into Venom violent mutants. Players slingshot members from a squad of Squids at their opponents, dealing damage by crashing into them. It's comparable to a game of pool, only pool doesn't involve propelling creatures into each other in a fight to their death.
Squids can belong to the shooter, scout, trooper or healer classes, but a fifth type will debut in Squids Odyssey. Fresh levels and items are also planned, as are "completely revamped" controls to take advantage of each platform's strengths, according to the announcement.
