Been following this game for a while. The developer has a background in movie animation, did work on Age of Ultron, so the animations are really nice. I especially like the sound of the narrative framework
SOMERVILLE at it's core is an episodic cinematic platformer with responsive shooter mechanics. It draws influence from my beloved days of grinning through Eric Chahi's Another World but dragged through a nice contemporary wash. Expect a core mechanic that borrows a little bit of Treasure shooter, a smidge of rhythm action, bookended by a fleshed out adventure game experience.
Told through a series of narrated chapters from a primary school teacher to her class. The book chronicles the life of author JOHN E. SOMERVILLE. A key historical figure that rose from the wake of a devastating alien occupation of earth.
