Analgesic Productions have announced to launch its story drive 3D platformer Sephonie in the fourth quarter of this year. This means that we can see a release date sometime in the winter season of 2021.
Sephonie is a story of three biologists Amy, Ingwen, and Riyou, who have to explore the island’s depth they stumble upon after being shipwrecked. The adventure begins as you unravel mysteries of both scientific and spiritual nature, watched over by a supernatural being who exists beyond human history.
The caves in the game will vary wildly from lush, jade chasms to reddish flora-filled sandstone caverns. Fling yourself over high ledges using the Teledash Vault, or activate the Sprint when you need to cover large distances. In addition, there is also the Wallrun ability letting you leap off of walls to other platforms.
The goal of the three characters is to research the island’s unknown creatures by linking with them. The unique Puzzle Grid system will let you rotate and place a series of multi-colored puzzle pieces onto the board, and connect islands. The caves also have small and large creatures, each with their own importance to the cave’s ecosystem.
