Publisher Assemble Entertainment and developer Chaosmonger Studio announce
ENCODYA will come to
Steam on
January 26th, offering a point-and-click adventure telling the story of a girl
and her robot. This
was announced for release
in 2020 so it's technically late, albeit by just a few weeks. They prepare us
for the launch with a new
Featurette #2 Trailer with a behind-the-scenes look at the game. Here's more
on the game and the video:
Encodya brings players to the dystopian
near-future of Neo-Berlin, where a young orphan girl named Tina teams up with a
hulking mass of metal and wiring named SAM-53 to bring light and happiness back
to the hellish cyberpunk landscape of 2062.
In this new featurette, Piovesan takes players behind the scenes and dives into
the little details that truly bring the world of Neo-Berlin to life. A
point-and-click adventure game succeeds when it offers a believable fantasy
world for players to explore and discover, and as Piovesan explains in the
video, ensuring each element of the game lends itself to the experience is key
to doing so. From the creation of completely original billboards and advertising
jingles to simple things like the dialogue between NPCs on the street, Piovesan
takes viewers through the creation process, providing developer insight into how
creating an authentic world is possible with a strong narrative and plenty of
subtle background
detail.
