Alterworlds: A Low-Poly Galactic Adventure Awaits!

A captivating 3-minute demo has dropped for Alterworlds, an upcoming low-poly puzzle game. This interstellar journey follows a quest to reunite with a lost love, traversing diverse planets along the way. The gameplay showcases a unique blend of mechanics: leaping between planets, blasting obstacles, and manipulating artifacts.

While the plot might seem familiar, Alterworlds truly shines in its artistic style and gameplay. The low-poly, cel-shaded aesthetic, reminiscent of Moebius' work, creates a retro yet visually appealing world.

The top-down perspective cleverly masks the depth of the puzzle elements. Players will jump, shoot, and drag objects across varied environments, from barren moons to vibrant dinosaur-inhabited worlds.

The only potential drawback might be the slightly awkward tutorial narration. However, this is a minor issue in an otherwise promising puzzle game. Idealplay's vision for Alterworlds is intriguing, especially its potential on mobile platforms.

While only a short demo is currently available, we're excited to highlight this promising title.
