NDS Inchworm Animation coming to DSiWare

Last week we brought your attention to some incredible music videos created with the free DSiWare animation system: Flipnote Studio. Little did we know that only days after, Flat Black Studios (who were behind movies such as A Scanner Darkly and Walking Life) have announced, that after 5 years in the making, they're finally ready to release their fully featured animation studio: Inchworm Animation.

If you're not convinced at just how complete this little program is, just take a look at the trailer below.

Still not convinced? Take a look at these features:
