Kid Onion Studios, a completely Italian team, recently started the Kickstarter campaign for River Tails: Stronger Together, a cooperative 3D platformer, in which you will be able to take control of a cat and a fish. The two will need to work together to solve puzzles, walk along the river and even face dangerous bosses.
Similarly to It Takes Two, of which you can read our review here, the title assumes full cooperation between two users, who will find themselves having to help each other in order to continue with the story. Despite this, there is also space for single players, as the work has a mode dedicated to one person.
Usually drawn as natural enemies, Furple and Finn are the two protagonists of this colorful platformer, which will see us take control of the feline or the fish in order to move forward in the story. In order to proceed along the river it will be necessary to master two main mechanics: jump and grab. We had the opportunity to put our hand on the title at Games Week 2021, noting how this is actually already in excellent condition and absolutely playable, with indeed some extremely precise commands and a noteworthy artistic sector.
The simplicity of the game actions therefore allows the title to be suitable for both those who are more experienced and newcomers, who will necessarily have to communicate with the other person in order to proceed. In addition, the all-Italian team offers many rewards to those who support the project, which currently has exceeded 50% of its goal, 48 hours after opening the page.
In fact, it will be possible not only to appear within the credits in the game but also to make your four-legged friend appear as a playable character, so as to make the experience completely unique.
