The bone metroidvania It’s a genre that has gained momentum in recent years, especially when you look at the scene independent, where he seems to have his biggest followers. successes like Dead cells and many others have contributed to an ever-growing list of authentic gems. And this one Primordial planet that we show you today, is another one that you should add to your wishlist right now from stores like Steam.
It is Primordial planet It also has a peculiarity that, although it does not affect the gameplay or its development, must be highlighted because although it may seem incredible, it is the work of a single developer, who spent practically a decade to get involved in it. That is to say, the official announcement a few hours ago is news that has continued to surprise the community, which already considered it practically lost.
What is this primordial planet about?
The game, as we tell you, is the work of a single developer called Seething swarm and this one got stuck full stomach working over the last ten years to realize his idea, which he transformed into the adventure of a prehistoric man (the type Caveman of any video game) into a game that meets the requirements of any metroidvania: 2D perspective and a giant map with several of its sections closed until we obtain a tool or skill that allows us to access it.
In this case it has the characteristic Primordial planet that the game is magnificent Pixel art
But be careful, don’t be fooled by appearances. Primordial planet This sounds like a title rooted in the Stone Age or something and I don’t think that’s strictly true. In between, a series of aliens will appear in the game that could abduct us and allow us to travel to other worlds where our protagonist has a lot of things to do.
How to cooperate in the Stone Age?
The game will arrive now PCthis is where its developer has been able to work peacefully all this time, but we cannot exclude that if successful, he will take the step towards PlayStation, Xbox, Switch or anywhere. Regardless, one of its most important claims will be the cooperative mode, which the developer himself explained in detail: “player 2 can act at any time as Sinothe agile sinosauropteryx, your faithful companion. Work together to overcome obstacles, solve puzzles and fight enemies as your bond strengthens, your skills increase and Sino becomes a fierce and loyal friend.
So that’s a lot of crumbs for a game that not only looks good, but also seems to be extraordinarily fun. Of course, at the moment it doesn’t have a release date (although with an integrated graphic you can play it and everything).
