Publisher Digerati has confirmed that the skin-crawling horror/platformer title, Tamashii will release on Xbox later this month on 24th December.
Developed by the Brazilian indie developer Vikintor, Tamashii is a Japanese horror/platformer which combines challenging unique puzzles set within a haunted temple among eldritch monstrosities. Can you survive the devilish traps and tricky puzzles, not to mention the monsters lurking in the dark corridors.
“With Tamashii I tried to express to players the same feeling of discovery and confusion that obscure titles of the past provided, using context instead of nostalgia as a primary point,” explains developer Vikintor. “The game was made keeping a balance between puzzle platforming, cryptic story and eerie atmosphere. Kind of a darker Monster Party (NES game from ’89).”
The title’s pixelated art style is heavily influenced by Japanese games of the late 80s and 90s. It also includes a Time Trial/Score Attack mode, so there’s plenty to do once you finish one playthrough.
