Dick in an untitled biopic that his production company Touchy Feely Films is producing with Anonymous Content, according to Variety.

Last year, at what will probably be the last E3 of it’s kind, Nintendo ran a short trailer for a series of simple but attractive puzzle games for the Gameboy Advance that at that point were known as DIGISTYLISH. The second batch of games released was notably more complex than the first. It would appear that Nintendo wanted to test the water with Boundish, Dotstream and Dialhex (covered in the first part of this Bit Generations review, located here) before continuing the series with the games reviewed below.
