This week’s Nintendo Direct wasstuffed full of gamesthat will also be making their way to PC over the next few months, but the one I haven’t been able to stop thinking about is the newly-announcedArranger: A Role-Puzzling Adventure. It’s the debut game from a team of indie devs that includeBraidartist David Hellman,Cartowriter Nick Suttner andEtherealdesigner Nicolás Recabarren, and they’ve also partnered with composer Tomás Batista, who did the music for both Ethereal and Martian colony builderPer Aspera. It’s a pretty stacked line-up as these things go, but it’s Arranger’s world of constantly shifting sliding tiles that’s really piqued my curiosity. Come and watch the lovely announcement trailer below and see what I mean.

“We started talking about this project on March 10th, 2020, so obviously a lot has changed in the world since then,” Suttner said in a statement. “But we’ve done the best we can to stay positive in a challenging environment in which to make games, and to create something beautiful, breezy, and memorable that stays true to each of our sensibilities. While we’ve all been in games for a while, this was a milestone project for all of us - my first time working on a game from start to finish, Nico’s first time shipping a full-scope game across multiple platforms, and David’s first full game project since Braid. Thanks to anyone who gives it a shot, it means a lot to us!”
Arranger: A Role-Puzzling Adventure is coming toSteamand theEpic Games Storesometime this summer, and it will be available for both Windows and Mac, too.
