Released almost a year ago, the indie gem Sea of Stars won over players. But the adventure isn’t over yet for Zale and Valere, and Sabotage Studios tells us more.
While Sea of Stars represented a beautiful conclusion to the adventure of Zale and Valere, the Children of the Solstice, Sabotage Studio was not finished with its brilliant vision of the J-RPG. Last March, a new mode was notably announced, and another nice surprise is in development.
Sea of Stars still intends to put stars in our eyes
Released on August 29, 2023, Sea of Stars itself provided a very nice surprise in the small world of independent games. After The Messenger, an excellent retro 2D platformer, Sabotage Studio took on the challenge of offering its own vision of the J-RPG, with illustrious inspirations such as Mario RPG. Funded via Kickstarter, the title already had many followers before its release and the attempt was brilliantly executed. But the talented independent studio was clearly not finished with its latest nugget. A cooperative mode for up to three people and a DLC are actually still in the works, and finally they have announced their news again.
On the official Sea of Stars X.com account, Sabotage Studio responded to fans who are eager to return to this world as colorful as it is enchanting. We learn that the development of these new features is progressing well despite a long period of radio silence. The studio also promises to say more later in the year. While the independent title will blow out its first candle on August 29, a potential date in this sense would already be found. Unless the developers wait for the next solstice, which will not take place until December, however. Or more or less shortly before the anniversary of the physical edition released earlier this year. The answers to these questions are therefore only in the stars for now.
