About the game: Out of Place
Out of Place deals with a serious theme telling the adventure of a teenage protagonist and his machine companion.In the strange, distant world of Out of Place the player has to prove himself in challenging combat using his companion while also protecting him courageous during frightening segments.
The intense experience is accompanied by beautiful handcrafted visuals and soundscapes.
The gameplay settles between combat-focused games like Hyper Light Drifter and Action-Adventures such as The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. But Out of Place wants to break with conventional mechanics of these genres by establishing a more tactical feel and freedom of choice to the combat system as well as providing atmospheric parts where the protagonist can’t fight at all.
Furthermore, it will transfer and expand the setting of classic 2D games like Heart of Darkness, Another World, Flashback or The Way into an action-packed 3D game world while maintaining their typical atmosphere and game feel.
