Elusive Chibig's new indiegame development
An adventure about being tiny in a huge world
An adventure about being tiny in a huge world
Chibig’s new development, Elusive, puts us in the tiny boots of Zoe, an intrepid raider who arrives at a giant haunted house following the footsteps of her father, an experienced Elusive explorer.
There, she will find much more than clues to his whereabouts, also other Elusive trying to reclaim their past and thriving community, a great mystery to be solved and, of course, valuable treasures that humans are not even aware of.
The Steam page is already available for you to wishlist, but you can also back the game now on Kickstarter and get exclusive rewards!
In celebration of the eighth anniversary of the development studio and after the launch on all platforms (Steam, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation and Xbox) of Mika and the Witch’s Mountain, Elusive arrives with a proposal where Chibig wants to put into practice everything learned in their previous developments.
Incursions by day, rest at night
In Elusive adventures are around every corner, literally.
You will explore a big house, inside and outside, full of unimaginable treasures, but also meet new Elusive that can help you in the search for your father and you will find other animals, although not all of them will be friendly.
The results of your raids will provide you with resources with which to improve your equipment and open new paths of exploration, but also to help your new Elusive community to prosper.
You will have to watch your feet!
Don’t forget that everything could be very dangerous when you are so small, and you will have to face animals that will chase you, and others that won’t make it easy for you to explore freely.
Fortunately, at the end of the day, you can return to Red-Watering Can, your little Elusive shelter where you can trade the treasures you have found that day, improve your equipment to access new areas in your future raids and simply rest and recharge your batteries.
Little by little, you will see how this space fills up with new Elusive and friendly animals to form a thriving community and a place to call home.
Behind Elusive’s development
If we talk about works where the main characters are tiny humanoid beings living adventures in huge worlds (what for us would be life-size), the references of The Secret World of Arrietty, It Takes Two and The Plucky Squire come quickly to mind.
Chibig has always taken Studio Ghibli as a source of inspiration in almost all its developments, especially for its touching stories and characteristic graphics.
As for the gameplay, we can find a combination of genres within “adventure” and that will also make us think of previous installments such as Summer in Mara or Ankora Lost Days, but also new elements for the team, such as those of the metroidvania genre.
If you want to support this new Chibig adventure, you can already do it on Kickstarter and also get exclusive early rewards. But you can also add it to your wishlist on Steam, the page is already live!
Check the Early Access pledges, such as Early Digital Game and Early Physical Edition, with a special price for a limited time only. Especially if you are a collector! Because we’re going to put all our efforts to make the physical edition of Elusive for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5 a reality.
