ANIMAL WELL - Release Date Trailer
I played a whole 15 minutes of Animal Well back at GDC last year, which was enough to convince me that this is definitely aspecial little gameall right. As a solo project, it looks utterly stunning. The amount of detail in show in its pixel art, the lighting, the ambience, thevibes… All absolutely wonderful.
We get to see a couple of those in the release date trailer above, as there will be various items and tools you can deploy to bend this world to do your bidding. Sticks can be used to distract ravenous dogs, a bioluminescent yoyo can lure otters away to different parts of the map, and firecrackers can keep horrible crows at bay. Heck, you’ll even have your own bubble wand to create makeshift platforms for you to jump on, you’rethatlight and tiny.
So if all that sounds up your street, bookmark itsSteampage for May 9th. It will cost £21/$25, and itsSteam announcementsays it will have “full Steam Deck support” too.
