Hortalius is a sandbox game planned for PC and consoles that’s not your garden-variety exploration survival game. A scientist is teleported to an ‘alien planet’ only to discover that he’s shrunken and is actually in someone’s garden. He must now embark on a journey of exploration reminiscent of the «Honey, I Shrunk the Kids» movies, traversing a variety of distinct garden environments and learning to overcome the unique challenges they pose. The player will experience familiar flora and fauna from an unfamiliar perspective, encountering huge creatures and plants rendered in a distinctive macro-photography visual style.The game will blend tried-and-tested ambient exploration and survival game mechanics with a single-player mystery narrative and a fully voiced emergent storyline that unfolds as the player explores the world. Hortalius will feature unique exploration and movement tools to keep the game feeling fresh and satisfying to play in the long-term, and base-building and resource-harvesting mechanics form the core exploration gameplay loop. A deep progression and crafting system with improvised tools and gadgets will fuel further exploration and discoveries, keeping the player engaged as they unravel the secrets of Lagan Labs and Planet Eden. Every playthrough is unique in Hortalius thanks to procedurally generated points of interest, our micro-biome level design, and varied item discoveries that help shape your path through the garden jungle to the answers you seek. |
