GamingLives takes a look at Upper One Games' narrative-driven puzzle platformer.
"The vignettes are perfectly pleasant to watch; they are well produced and can be absolutely fascinating, but they do wrench you out of the game every time you watch one. In a sense they fall victim to their own implementation; each clip is related to an action or area in the story, so when they become unlocked it makes sense to just watch them then and there, which is the major factor in the disrupted immersion. It’s possible to watch the lot of them at the end of the game, or even just the ones you unlocked in that chapter while the game loads the next. This would probably help, but the underlying problem is that there is little to tie two very separate stories together."
Starting today, Beyond Blue and Never Alone (Kisima Ingitchuna) are free at Epic Games Store. Once you claim them, they're yours to keep.
As Never Alone brings its beautiful storytelling and immersive gameplay to Nintendo Switch, there are hints of a sequel being in development. Hell, there’s even a teaser for Never Alone 2 inside the port’s launch trailer.
The 1st game was fantastic.

1) hints? you mean the Devs telling you at the end of the trailer 2nd game is in pre production, that's not a hint ffs lol.
2) a teaser is NOT a number 2 at the end lol.
That would be awesome. I live in Alaska so it's always nice to see it talked about or shown in games.
E-Line Media and the Cook Inlet Tribal Council (CITC) announced today that the indie game Never Alone is featured in the Smithsonian Institution’s upcoming Futures Exhibition.
