Thunderful, Coatsink, and Noname Studios have just hit the refresh button on the hype machine for their upcoming 2D adventure, Worldless, set to drop on PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch come November 21st. The trio of game devs have launched a new commentary video that dives deep into what makes Worldless a genre-bending experience.
In the commentary, Joel Roset, the Creative and Animation Director, lifts the veil on the game’s unique core mechanics. Players are incentivized to check out every nook and cranny of each level, gaining abilities they can whip out in combat sequences. The level design is no slouch either, featuring a map layout that effortlessly guides players on their journey, indicating cleared zones and new territories waiting to be unlocked.
But hold on to your controllers, because here’s where it gets real spicy: Worldless innovatively marries turn-based combat with real-time action. So, if you’ve been grinding those reflexes, the game rewards you with a perfect parry system during its defensive phases. Yep, timing is everything, and if you’ve got the skills, the game acknowledges that.
As for the setting, Worldless throws you into a world where the laws of existence are yet to be written. Players will encounter entities with contrasting objectives: while one group seeks virtue, the other aims for their downfall. The ensuing cosmic clash pushes players right into the thick of it, becoming a part of a larger battle for transcendence.
The game challenges players to decode its mysterious narrative, as well as its underlying themes centered on growth and understanding. With an atmosphere this thick, Worldless is gearing up to be a must-play for fans of metroidvania adventures, turn-based action, and real-time combat.
So mark those calendars, gamers. November 21st is when Worldless aims to redefine genre norms and take you on a unique gameplay journey. Stay tuned for more updates on Worldless, and keep leveling up, G-LYFE Nation!
