Today, publisher Raw Fury and developer Long Hat House announced Dandara, a Metroidvania-inspired game for Switch, PC, mobile devices, and "consoles."
The following overview of the game is provided:
In a bizarre universe where the oppressed are on the brink of oblivion, Dandara has awoken to reshape the world.
As a metroidvania carefully designed with both touch and gamepad in mind, we considered how you could achieve exploration and fast action using either input. The result was a gravity bending world where movement is comprised of jumping from surface to surface in lovingly crafted environments. It's up to Dandara to restore balance and give direction to a directionless world!
Features:
- Innovative control scheme lets action and exploration happen fluently on both touchscreen and gamepad alike!
- Beautiful, handcrafted pixel art and original soundtrack!
- Wide variety of enemies and puzzles, no room should feel the same!
- Plenty of secrets to discover!
The game is being developed in the Unity 5 engine, and is specifically being designed with the Switch in mind. Whatever that means. Below, you can check out the new announcement trailer:
