Celeste's composer announces a shoot 'em up RPG that recalls Undertale - a pitch almost as grand as I know the soundtrack will be
Lena Raine is back in Anothereal

After her effortlessly catchy beeps and boops in Celeste, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Minecraft, and Deltarune, hearing that composer Lena Raine is behind the decks on any game immediately makes my ears perk up with anticipation. She's now extending her talents to a full game that's fusing bullet hell carnage with a brain-scra🔴tching, existential setup.
Anothereal iꦏs the recently-announced project that's mixing two genres you wouldn't normally pair together, with shoot 'em up style battles accompanying an RPG adventure that doesn't look too dissimilar to Undertale or Deltarune's minimalist pixel styles. The RPGness also comes in with Astra's customizable loadout, usable items, and an explorable world "full of puzzles, mysteries, and weirdos."
The nebulous concept trailer doesn't beco෴me too much more tangible with that description, but Anothereal is clearly playing with themes of social isolation and self-actualization that excite me a lot. As was the case with Celeste, there might even be some queer subtext you can read into from its setup, but we'll just need to see the full game before any of that comes to surface.
The YouTube trailer description also notes "an EXISTENCE system that changes how you interact with the world" which I'm looking forward to learning more about. Is there an Existent gauge that affects how people view Astra? Or is it closer to unlockable pow🦂ers that open up new possibilities? All will be revealed when Anothereal becomes "EXISTENT IN 202X."
While we wait for 202X to pass, why not check out the other 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming indie games of 2024 and beyond.
