Games coming out earlier than expected are small miracles to be celebrated
Indiana-Jonas & Jasper Oprel, the dynamic duo behind the highly anticipated climbing game, Surmount, have finally reached the summit of Mount Game Dev. After years of hard work and dedication, their team, along with co-publishing team popagenda, are excited to announce that Surmount has gone gold and will be released earlier than expected on May 2nd.
The game will be available on Nintendo Switch and PC (Steam and Epic Games Store) for $14.99, with a limited time launch discount of 10%. Fans of the game can’t contain their excitement as they eagerly await the chance to embark on their own mountain climbing adventure.
The decision to release the game ahead of schedule was not an easy one, but the team felt it was the right choice for their community.
According to Nick Verge of popagenda, “There’s no worse feeling than having to walk back your release date and delay your game, so today’s announcement is really exciting!” The team also wanted to make sure that Surmount had the space to shine on its own, without being overshadowed by other game releases. As Verge puts it, “We mainly wanted to ensure that our friends’ games Animal Well, Crow Country, and Cryptmaster have as much space to shine as possible.”
But what exactly is Surmount? The game is a free-flowing, physics-based platforming adventure that allows players to experience the exhilarating joys of mountain climbing. Set on the challenging Mount Om, players will face handcrafted and procedurally generated obstacles as they make their way to the top. Along the way, they will encounter unique characters who add a touch of silliness to the journey.
One of the most exciting features of Surmount is its approachable physics-based climbing system. Unlike other games in the genre, Surmount strikes the perfect balance between challenge and enjoyment. Players can replay levels over and over without feeling overly punished, making it endlessly replayable. The game also offers a mix of both handmade levels and large procedurally generated areas, giving players a dynamic and ever-changing experience.
In addition to the thrilling gameplay, Surmount also offers a variety of customization options. Players can unlock permanent and equipable items that will boost their stats, making them more equipped to tackle the challenges of Mount Om. And for those who want to add a personal touch, there are customization options for character appearance as well.
But the fun doesn’t stop there. Surmount also offers a daily mountain challenge, allowing players to test their skills and compete with friends for the top spot. And for those who prefer to climb with a friend, Surmount offers local co-op gameplay, allowing players to team up and tackle the mountain together.
