Armillo is a solid 'rolling platformer' on the Wii U eShop that's earned some loyal fans, though developer Fuzzy Wuzzy Games was quick to acknowledge that the release wasn't quite at its best on day one. Work has been ongoing on an update, as a result, to improve the framerate and to resolve some issues that have been preventing 100% completion.
The developer has now confirmed that its v1.1 patch is available in North America, which should activate next time the game is run; it'll take a little longer for that patch to make its way to Europe, however.
So there you have it. If you're in North America and are checking out the update let us know whether it delivers those vital improvements in the comments section below.

Ah good, I was just about to start back up on this again.
That's nice, I really like the game but it has a lot more potential.
Thanks, Fuzzy Wuzzy. Now I can go back to try and get all secret levels.
Downloaded the update, love the game, but framerate is still bad. I do think it's better with the update, but still bad. Great game though!
@Hero-of-WiiU I agree, I hope they are able to make a sequel.
good on them for the update. the music however was released in a perfect state:) among other things. great game!
I liked the game, but i have a break to wait on the patch.
Really looking forward to the EU version patch for Armillo, so I can finally start to play the game.
Still waiting on that ittle dew patch.
Awesome now its time to go back and finish what i started! Even with its issues this game is alot of fun but XType Plus is seriously addicting!
Given that it is am indie game the framerate issue is totally forgiveable. There are not a lot of good platformers nowadays, and thus it is a gem.
I noticed the FPS freezing occasionally. Didn't know there was a completion error.
Cool. Just bought it and downloading now.
Hmm, the framerate still isn't what I would expect given the seemingly modest poly count. Also the game pulls you from bright to dark to challenge stage to boss fight with little thematic connection. And deaths sneak up on you out of the blue with the camera far back. But, there is some creativity here, I'll keep at it.
@Jared1984 Seriously. Any chance Nintendo Life could inquire about that, and the Giana Sisters patch we didn't get?
