Didn't know this was made by the same devs who did Haven. It looks like a more unforgiving/challenging Jusant, so I'm def going to keep an eye on this one.

Also, here's the demo teaser they released a month ago:

 

[Fortress of Regrets]

Looks like a more mechanically involved Jusant, but so, so, so much uglier. I don't like how this one looks at all.

I enjoyed Jusant, it looked really good with everything maxed out on PC. Some of the best global illumination in any game. The writing of the text logs you find is terribly dull though, almost put me to sleep. It's best to ingore those and just enjoy the environmental storytelling.

I'll never understand how they went from making the action banger that is Furi to whatever this is.

I'll never understand how they went from making the action banger that is Furi to whatever this is.

This game is great though.

Had a lot of fun with the demo and I've replayed it multiple times.

I'll never understand how they went from making the action banger that is Furi to whatever this is.

I tried to get into Furi but it felt like the boss battles dragged on way too long. I'd usually start dying because I was getting bored.

 

[Digity.exe]

I want to play this.

 

[Punished Miku]

I'd pick this up on Xbox for sure. Loved Jusant.

 

[Punished Miku]

Played the demo on PS5. I really, really enjoyed it. Hope it comes to Xbox down the road. Like Jusant x QWOP.

The demo is out now! Play it on Steam and PlayStation 5

Reach a summit never climbed before in this survival-climber from the creators of Furi and Haven. Climb anywhere and plan your route carefully, managing pitons and resources to survive unforgiving Mount Kami.

This new trailer explores Aava's determination, the encounters she'll make on her way up and Kami's long lost past... and a new gameplay feature: ice climbing.

 

[drotahorror]

Really pumped for this. Didn't realize it was from the same people that did FURI. Quite the departure.

Demo was great and it's on PS5 / Steam.

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

Played the demo and thought it was really interesting. It has a lot of mechanics and survival elements which was cool to see. Not just "vibes dude".

My biggest gripe was that it ran rough on base PS5. I'm not anal about that kind of shit but this was noticeably rickety to me. Spinning the camera was choppy and jerky.

 

[TheGreatMusashi]

I loved the demo. Can't wait for the full game, wish it wasn't so far away
