Title is described as a “physics-based toy”
Just days after saying they would welcome atime when their services aren’t needed, the folks behind the Indie Fund have announced the fifth game they’ll be backing. This time it’sKachinawhich is being developed by Ben Esposito who was the level designer of last year’sThe Unfinished Swan.
On thegame’s website, Ben describesKachinaas a “physics-based toy that evokesKatamari Damacy’ssense of order and scale.” From the screenshots available, you can see the same bright, colorful aesthetic and that exploration and interacting with various animals will be key.
Maybe the most interesting tidbit of information comes from theIndie Fund websitewhich reveals thatKachinawasdevised during the Molyjam,the event that challenged developers to create games based on the infamous Peter Molydeux parody Twitter account. I’d be interested to know what tweet gave Ben the inspiration for the game; maybe that’s something we’ll learn soon.
