Kepler Interactive and developer Awaceb have released a nice and long gameplay video for their upcoming game Tchia, complete with commentary by Game Director Phil Crifo, check it out.

Traveling across the landscape, Tchia can run, jump, or glide vast distances, as long as her stamina is up. But other methods of getting around are much faster, or at least, more unique. Tchia can climb to the top of a tree and catapult herself across the canopy, as well as climb almost any larger obstacle, whether rocks or mountains. But with an entire archipelago to explore, two legs just don’t cut it. Tchia’s soul-jumping ability allows her to quickly hop into the body of almost any animal or inanimate object you can find. Take to the seas and explore the ocean depths as a dolphin, or traverse distances by sky as a seagull.

Not everything is calm and relaxing in Tchia though. The island Tchia calls home has been invaded by strange fabric creatures called the Maano, who under the orders of the archipelago’s evil ruler, have abducted her father. Players will have to use everything at their disposal to take them out, choosing between burning the cloth menaces with lanterns, or to stun them with Tchia’s trusty slingshot. Soul-jumping offers additional solutions, with Tchia being able to control a nearby lantern and fling it at an enemy.

The game was set to release this year, but the developers opted to delay it, in order to provide the best experience that they could to gamers. It is now set to release sometime in the Autumn months of 2023 for PC, PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4.
