Phoenotopia: Awakening is now available
on
Steam, offering a Windows edition of this action/adventure/puzzle platformer
that was first released on Switch. This has a throwback style which can be seen
in
this trailer. Here's more on the game, which carries a 10% launch discount
for the next week:
The two primary gameplay approaches include top-down
world exploration, and sidescrolling areas within towns / cities / caves and key
areas. There’s a freely traversable world map akin to JRPGs of old - filled with
towns to visit, dungeons to explore, and monsters to slay.
Join Gail, a simple villager, who must heed the call for adventure when a great
star ship appears in the night sky and abducts all the adults. As the new oldest
member of her fragmented community, she must set out to solve this great
mystery. Little does she know of the grand adventure before her, the evil
lurking in the shadows, and the role she will play in the fight for Earth’s very
existence!
