Everyone at Plastic is incredibly excited today. Were releasing Bound a unique platformer in which you play as a contemporary dancer. The game, however, is not just about dance. It also delivers a serious story in a modern, experimental way thats only possible in games.
Instead of telling you the story, Bound invites you to explore it and discover at your own individual pace. The games strong narrative can touch you on a personal level. Thats why we havent revealed any details of Bounds story before today. We ask you to please not spoil the meaning of our game to your friends. It works best when you approach it fresh, without any preconceptions about where its headed.
We worked for almost four years to implement as many unique and unexplored game elements as possible. For the aesthetics of Bound, we have chosen modern art and demoscene algorithms. For its audio, we decided to go into electroacoustic music and combine it with classical ballet piano. And finally we have brought you the possibility to dance through the whole game.
But we have also thought about hardcore gamers. You can complete the game in 120 different ways. The order that you play the levels affects how the game looks, sounds, and behaves, as well as your perspective on the events of the game. It can completely change how you interpret the events of the story. The order of the levels also affects how difficult they are to complete. Finding the fastest path will be hard, and will grant you a Platinum Trophy.
Finally, Bound will be available on Playstation VR on VR launch day as a free update. We are really proud of our camera system which proves that third-person camera games are possible in VR and that they can deliver an absolutely new kind of amazing experience to you, the players.
Please enjoy Bound.
