illo – birth of the cool Preview

With a title that sounds like the Italian version of “Engrish,” Raylight studios’ illo – birth of the cool seems like it may be overlooked. In any case, illo is a puzzle adventure game coming soon to iOS and Android devices. You’ll have to guide the titular illo through artsy obstacles with touching and sliding. Before we get into more detail, let’s dive into the teaser trailer.

Even with this brief glimpse of the game, the Disney (or perhaps Pixar) influence is clear. The cutesy, abstract visuals give illo quite a unique flavor. Tapping a platform sends illo there, and manipulating the environment is key to getting him there safely. That’s about all we can gleam from the trailer, but more is sure to come.
