Bear in mind Toem? That was a bloody pretty sport. I am all the time a fan of a sport the place images is the core mechanic, there’s such a particular pleasure in navigating an area making an attempt to seize a fracture of its essence. Picture modes simply aren’t the identical, I would like somebody to textually give me a digicam and ship me on my method. A sequel was introduced final 12 months, fairly merely known as Toem 2, and through yesterday’s Day of the Devs, some gameplay was proven off for the primary time.
Basically, it appears like extra of the identical (which I wish to rapidly clarify is a superb factor), albeit clearly with a number of extra years of inventive expertise below the builders’ belts. Environments are absolutely 3D now, reasonably than what (I am guessing) had been all 2D textures mapped onto 3D objects. You are still out on an journey, taking photos alongside the best way to uncover a phenomenon that’s being stored hush, hush in the interim.
The sequel will function particular NPCs known as Buddies (aww), all of which have their very own distinctive questline. As soon as you have wrapped up a quest, they will offer you a digicam device like, uh, scissors! Which reduce issues! As scissors are wish to do. Otherwise you’ll get a hammer, no prize for guessing what that does. None of this stuff sound notably digicam associated, however they appear to be enjoyable methods to work together with the world. You may soar round and climb issues now too, a lot of methods to have some enjoyable exterior of taking an image of a cheeky gnome.
There is no actual launch date for Toem 2 simply but, however it’s slated for launch someday in 2026. You may wishlist it on Steam here!
