Witch Beam, the Brisbane-based dev staff behind BAFTA-winning indie hit Unpacking, has revealed that its subsequent mission — a musical puzzler by the title of Tempopo — is coming to Change someday in 2024.
With Cult Video games on publishing duties, the preliminary trailer debuted within the current PC Gaming Present, however you’ll be able to try the “Director’s Reduce” of it above. We suggest watching the entire thing, because the gameplay clips on the finish do a greater job of explaining the coolness vibes and puzzle gameplay than the tone-setting opening.
Basically, the titular Tempopo is a radish-y, onion-like plant creature that bounces to the beat, similar to every part else in these little diorama backyard phases. Musical flowers in want of rescue have apparently been scattered throughout the sky, though solely the Tempopo — protagonist Hana’s “magical backyard sprites” are as much as the duty, and you will want to make use of them to resolve environmental puzzles and work your method to every backyard’s exit.
BAFTA award-winning Audio Director and Composer, Jeff van Dyck (who labored on Unpacking and Alien: Isolation) is dealing with the music right here, with Angela van Dyck and Eneteti Turnbull on vocals.
We’ll depart it to the PR to elaborate on the setup a bit of extra:
Mischievous and uncoordinated by nature, Tempopo will depend on your directions to work collectively and resolve every island’s puzzle. Use your wits or trial and error to seek out the proper configuration, fixing puzzles with creative options involving a number of Tempopo performing totally different roles.
– Information Tempopo by means of 60 ranges, manoeuvring, smashing, blocking, lifting and pushing your approach by means of spatial puzzles throughout 4 seasons
– Expertise a vivid and joyful world that’s permeated with music, the place each dwelling component strikes in concord with the musical heartbeat
-Construct your personal melodic backyard with the flowers you rescue all through the sport and revel in a singular musical efficiency
Along with Change, Tempopo will launch on Steam, Xbox One, and Xbox Collection X|S.
We have now to say, these little Captain Toad-style ranges do look pretty, and the extra we watched the trailer, the extra the beat began to take us over. Unpacking was a high-quality recreation (though one which induced delicate panic on this specific author having moved home twice in six months in actual life), so we’re desirous to see — and listen to — extra of this one.
Tell us under if that is (or is not fairly) your Tempopo.
