Influyente juego de rompecabezas tipo juguete 'Windosill’ viene a cambiar después 13 Años


Cast your mind back to 2009, si puedes. It was a Wii year, con deportes wii, ajuste de wii, y mario kart wii dominating the charts, and indie games were really kicking off, with niche-but-beloved games like Flor, Canabalt, y Minecraft (okay, multa, that one’s not niche any more) all being released within months of each other.

Among those games was a brilliant little surreal toy-puzzle called antepecho, which you may no have heard of. It’s a game by vector artist Patrick Smith, who would later go on to make a similar game called Metamorphabet, and even if you haven’t played it, you’ll recognise the games that drew on Windosill as an influence — Valle del monumento, Condado de Donut, Alto’s Adventure, y Blek have all publically acknowledged Windosill as one of their guiding stars.

All of which to say that Windosill is coming to the Nintendo Switch — a perfect home for the bright, simple lines of the game, si nos preguntas. Developer Patrick Smith has even said that the game isredesigned for controllersand now supports two-player co-op, más “tasteful rumble effects” and a “dynamic gravity modethat uses the Switch’s accelerometer. There’s even an art gallery ofWindosill-adjacent paintingsto find!

You can download Windosill on the Nintendo Switch eShop from the 11th of November.
