The creators of Jett and Sword & Sworcery are making a 2D mystery action game
Superbrothers, the developers behind Jett: The Far Shore and Sword & Sworcery, are collaborating with an unnamed publisher to create a new “2D mystery action pixel videogame”. This new project marks a departure from their previous experimental work and is described as “satisfyingly finite, immediately legible, entertaining, funny, and generally satisfying for a broad audience”.
The term “hipster” is often used in a derogatory manner, but Sword & Sworcery is a unique experience that defies easy categorization. It blends elements of electronica music with a Zelda-like narrative, creating a game that is both ironic and sincere. Jett: The Far Shore, on the other hand, is a space shooter that offers a mix of wonder and frustration, with a focus on interplanetary colonization.
In addition to their own projects, Superbrothers has also contributed to Sound Shapes, a platformer with a strong emphasis on music. The developers have recently teased their new game through a job posting, hinting at a transition from prototyping to pre-production. They are currently seeking technical and gameplay specialists to join their team.
Despite some reservations about Jett: The Far Shore, fans of Superbrothers can look forward to their upcoming project. The mention of a “broad audience” may raise concerns, but the promise of a “mystery action pixel videogame” is intriguing. Let’s conclude with a nod to Jim Guthrie’s iconic soundtrack from Sword & Sworcery.
