popagenda, Indiana-Jonas and Jasper Oprel have confirmed a release date for Surmount on Nintendo Switch.
You will have the chance to experience the joys of mountain climbing in this “free-flowing, physics-based platforming adventure.”
Challenged to make your perilous ascent up Mount Om, as you overcome its handcraft and procedurally generated obstacles a “silly story with eccentric folks” will unfold along the way. Whether climbing alone or with a friend, you can upgrade and customise your climber to stand a better chance of reaching the top.
The publisher has outlined the game’s key features, which include
- An approachable physics-based climbing system that is endlessly replayable and not overly punishing
- A mix of handmade levels and large procedurally generated areas to overcome.
- On your way to the top of Mount Om, you’ll meet a variety of eccentric characters, all with their own reason to journey to the top.
- Unlock a variety of permanent and equipable items that will boost your stats.
- Be the most fashionable climber out there by customizing your character’s look.
- Play alone or tethered to a friend in local co-op.
Surmount will be released digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide on 9 May 2024.
