Chimango Games announces a brand new 2D platformer for PC. In Ryder: The Deserter, players join Ryder, a secret agent with the ability to control objects, such as vehicles and rockets, and even enemies!
Platformers generally rely on running and jumping, but Ryder features fast-paced levels in which you’ll be dodging, shooting and even riding enemies and obstacles, to take control of them!
‘The planning began at a game jam at home. The idea was to make a different platform game’, says Agustín Pérez Fernández, creative director of the game. ‘I was bored of playing the same: platformers tend to be based on jumping, so I wanted to see if I could achieve something different and that’s when an idea came to mind, of a game based on riding and climbing things’.
Along with all these elements of gameplay comes a deep story of conspiracy and desertion, set in a retro-futuristic, post-apocalyptic world.
Key Features:
- Quick gameplay: It’s easy to die, but also easy to retry!
- A challenging game with no unfair difficulty
- Classic and fun platformer controls: Jump, Double jump and Wall climb
- Ride your bike, rockets and turrets, and other type of enemies to shoot and to use them as jetpacks.
- Alternative challenges in every level: Optional collectable coins and minigames
