Rain World is hard to explain but can be best described as a cross between a survival horror game and a platformer, under development by Joar Jakobsson and James primate. It had a successful Kickstarter campaign raising more than double its initial goal. Over the last few months, the game has expanded significantly moving to Unity to allow for better visuals and improved functions. James agreed to answer a few questions about the game and its development.
Rain World will give you the opportunity to experience a world of wonder, danger, and slugcats.
Today marks the release of the frantic survival platformer, as Rain World on Xbox launches, alongside the Downpour expansion on all formats
"Rain World is a challenging Metroidvania-style platformer from Videocult and Akupara Games. In Rain World, players contr ol a vulnerable but nimble "slugcat" as it struggles to survive in a strange and dangerous world. Until now, the only way to brave the game's rain-soaked world was solo, but the Rain World: Downpour DLC, which has just come to consoles following the PC release, changes all that. The 'Downpour' DLC adds 4-player local co-op support, five new playable characters, and more," says Co-Optimus.
