With all the running and the jumping I bet Dr Who would love this game!
A first person game about jumping, sense of speed and discovery. The key is timing, the goal is exploring and traveling flawlessly through the environment. The setting is an abstract - mainly duotone - outlined world, with a look referring to the geometrical abstractions from the 50s a the 3D low-poly gaming era.
The game is available from the official site on a pay-what-you-want basis for both Mac and PC from Santa Ragione, a micro game design studio based in Milan, Italy. Buon Giorno ragazzi!
Here are some quick gameplay tips to read while you wait for the download to finish.
FOTONICA how to play:
This game is ONE BUTTON:
