As the small exploration probe forma.8 you're stranded alone on the surface of an alien planet. Separated from your companions by accident you have a life or death mission to accomplish: find and recover a lost, powerful energy source before it's too late. And not everything is what it seems…
forma.8 offers all the gameplay hooks of the classic metroidvania formula: a huge world to explore, a unique control system, power ups to collect to unlock new zones, enemies to fight, puzzle to solve, a cryptic story and huge bosses. All presented with unique visuals: using a combination of lovely hand drawn vector graphics, 3D characters and very high resolution and antialiasing to bring the world of forma.8 to life, in silky smooth 60 frames per second.
Features:
- Explore a huge, open world full of secrets
- Solve ancient mysteries
- Gain new power-ups to progress in your adventure
- Fight deadly enemies and face powerful bosses
- Delve into a deep and cryptic lore
forma.8 will be available 23rd February on PS4, PSVita, Xbox One, PC, MAC and Wii U at the price of 11.99 pounds / 14.99€.
A collector’s physical limited edition on PS4 and PSVita will be available at later date from Limited Run Games (http://www.limitedrungames.com).
