Ecotone, the inventive indie platform adventure from French developers Sundae Factory, is today – May 6th, released on Steam.
Available for $8.99, 8.99€ or £5.99
The quest is to discover your own identity as you face the perils in which you find yourself. With three worlds to explore with brain taxing puzzles which will challenge and test the skill of the player in ever evolving and changing scenarios. Ecotone has twists and turns behind a backdrop story with unique surprises. With new gameplay on each of the 15 levels that make up the worlds, exploring is made even more chaotic and fun with reversed gravity and various speeds of play. Platforming has never been this much fun… but watch out for the traps.
Developer Ludovic Espérou says, “ We are excited to see Ecotone released on Steam. We are offering a very unique retro platform game that has lots of depth and above all a real challenge with lots of hidden surprises. The look, the ambience, are all facets of the game we have worked on to make Ecotone, different and more rewarding?”
