Soft Body

developed by Zeke Virant

[gfycat data_id="SeveralWiltedGlobefish"][gfycat data_id="ConventionalDetailedFoxhound"][gfycat data_id="LoneCautiousGoldfinch"]

“An action-­puzzle game that infuses the twin­-stick shooter with a surreal sense of control and style. Inspired by the simplicity and joy of twin-stick shooters and other arcade games, players take control of two beautiful, gooey snakes at the same time (one with each analog stick). Together, you use the snakes to paint the world, which continually changes around you, while dodging bullets and popping enemies. Tense and soothing, Soft Body combines the challenge and twitchy fun of quick-restart action games with a meditative aesthetic.”

Scheduled to be released in early 2016 for PS4 and Windows, with ports to Mac and PS Vita shortly afterwards.
