Rain World might be going to be the beautiful indie everybody swoons over this week. Get on board now otherwise you’ll be left climbing onto the bandwagon mid-parade.
Rain World releases this week for PC and PS4 after a number of years of anticipation, and it seems to be very particular certainly.
The opening cinematic above does an excellent job of speaking a beautiful melancholic aesthetic and introducing the Slugcat protagonist, however what makes this attractive platformer so intriguing to me is that Rain World boasts an ecosystem in which creatures lead an existence semi-independent of the player’s actions.
The video doesn’t present that, or any gameplay, so I actually advocate testing the previous Rain World trailer to see it in motion and get a really feel for the way it performs. We’ve obtained another gameplay trailers underneath the Rain World tag should you fancy it, however most of them are fairly previous; we’ve been ready on this one for 4 years now.
Rain World is only one of plenty of indies produced in partnership with Adult Swim Games, which is performing some actually attention-grabbing issues for the time being.
Coincidentally, as I wrote this text it started to rain, and my cat flopped down on the desk in an especially slug-like vogue. Let’s hope this can be a constructive omen.
