The Chase, a new platformer sprinting to DS
Chibi characters and an excessive use of pink may put you off the idea of liking The Chase: Felix Meets Felicity, but we'd advise against making snap judgements in this case. Despite first appearances, this is a platformer that has more in common with Yoshi Touch & Go, Kirby: Canvas Curse and Mister Slime, rather than being a vanilla run-and-jump formula.
The plot, which is also peculiar for a game of this ilk, introduces Felix and Felicity, who are both rushing across town to meet up for a romantic rendezvous. This is where a little player assistance is required. Specifically, you'll have to grab your stylus and draw the paths that Felix and Felicity will take on the touchscreen, all in the name of lurve. A dwindling clock and the threat of bad weather means you'll have to be quick, but NPCs with quirky advice on love will assist you on your journey.
Currently, The Chase is scheduled for a February release -- a Valentine's Day release would seem appropriate!
