PS4 and Steam, comes out August 2nd (tomorrow). This type of shit is my jam
-
Seems strange an experience game like this hasn't jumped on the VR boat
-
I took a programming test to work on this game. I did not get the job. The team is super small, I think 4 or 5?
-
Is it an actual game or is it just swimming around in someones art wank till I get bored?
-
It is definitely art wank, but it is also really damn good art wank
The animation is top notch.
-
Looks stupid. It will be PS+ within a month
-
looks like ecco the dolphin with no dolphin
-
or fun
-
lmao
-
It's pretty!
-
Pretty empty.
It's a less interesting version of Journey mixed with a little Flower wrapped in scuba gear. I like both of those games but ABZU is really kind of a turd.
-
:fbm
-
Why you have to steal our Abzu too Hitler?
-
It feels like more Flower than Journey to me, honestly.
It is more of an "experience", not really any gameplay to speak of. I finished it in around 3 hours, took another 1.5 hours to get all of the achievements. I'd give it a 9/10 but I'm a sucker for underwater and ocean stuff. The soundtrack is fantastic, as is the animation on the ocean wildlife

Achievements in a non-game are like gold stars in a special ed. class. And you spent and hour and a half getting them.

Short bus shaming

looks real cool. I much prefer this sort of interactive experience game devoid of challenge rather than the interactive experience game where they just make it a generic manshooter to justify it as a Real Game™
-
Really enjoyed Flower, so I'll check it out when it's cheaper.

I'll admit that it took me a few tries to beat the electric level in Flower without getting hit :P

I was pleasantly surprised with how reminiscent this was to Flower, especially the last section. Will be worth your time when you pick it up
