The Shine of a Star shooting for release in near future
For anyone who's seen a shooting star, ever wondered where it went after that? You may just find out in the coming months, as indie developer Forgotten Key has just announced its debut adventure, The Shine of a Star.
Reminiscent of games like Samorost and Machinarium, this point-and-click adventure casts players in the role of a star who's fallen to Earth. Now lost and alone in the woods, players must help the little star return home, overcoming numerous obstacles along the way. As seen in the first trailer, the game's story is conveyed exclusively through animations and sound rather than dialogue.
Developed by a small Swedish team of four people, The Shine of a Star was a recent winner in the country's Game Concept Challenge. There is no firm release date or distribution details available at the moment, but the game is currently in its final testing phase, and the developers are aiming for launch sometime within the next month or two if all goes well.
