Oh, wow. Aero the Acro-Bat. That's a name I hadn't heard since the 16-bit era. I don't recall the first one being a big hit or anything like that, it would have had a sequel back then, so this new game is both surprising and a confirmation that some people have no new ideas.
Edit I forgot to add: launches "later this year" but there are no screenshots or a video? That's not very promising.
