Wii U version of Toki Tori 2 will get level editor after launch

Developer Two Tribes have confirmed that the Wii U version of Toki Tori 2 will receive the level editor sometime after launch. In a blog post, they explained that they are focused on polishing up the core game and will add extra features as time goes on. Here's an excerpt:

The possibilities of the Wii U really stir the team’s imagination, so you can bet they’re thinking of other ways to use the Wii U. And some of that will likely be added in updates down the road.

First of all, the level editor. As you’ll know if you’re on the Steam alpha list, the editor we use to make the game is pretty darn powerful. We’d love you to be able to create your own puzzles, and the Wii U GamePad lends itself to this pretty well. Just look at the preliminary version we show in
our Wii U Trailer. It works deliciously!

Some of you will expect the editor to be available at launch: unfortunately, it’s quite a challenge to make a level editor accessible and fun to use. At this point, we’d rather use the time and energy required to polish the core game. But we’ll get around to it later on!

This ties in with the next Wii U feature we want to tackle. We’re really enamored with MiiVerse, and want to integrate it into Toki Tori 2. Of course, there will be a Toki Tori 2 community, but otherwise, we’re waiting to see what else will be added to the service. What if you could create levels with the editor, then share them via MiiVerse and allow others to open them with a single click? What if this could tie in with levels created in the Steam version? All of this might come true!
