After 2 years of development, Hot Fudge Games announces its Kickstarter campaign for New Homeland, an original blend of various classics from the 8 & 16 bits era, the sandbox genre, and high quality pixel art.
At its core, New Homeland stays true to the gameplay, the look, and the feel of classics from the 8 & 16 bits era. It blends the fun and precise controls of a platform game, the epic journey in a huge world to explore of an action adventure game, and the raw action and challenges of Metroidvania type dungeons.
New Homeland also lives in the times and features a world that is fully interactive, dynamic, and alive by incorporating a Life Simulation/City Building aspect to the whole.
Moreover, the player is given great freedom of action and growth integrating elements from a sandbox/RPG game. You can be an adventurer, a warrior, a wizard, a craftsman, a hunter, a builder, a miner, a trader, a leader, a farmer…
Other features include:
- A 16 bits era general aesthetic with high quality pixel art and animations.
