Backbone Will Tell The Story Of A Raccoon s Existential Crisis On Switch
Backbone Will Tell The Story Of A Raccoon's Existential Crisis On Switch Nintendo Life A rather strange detective story by Share: on We're starting to see some intriguing eShop announcements for the next few weeks and another to join the ranks is , developed by EggNut and published by Raw Fury; as you can see in the trailer above it hits Switch on 9th February. It's a mature narrative adventure with a dystopian setting; you can see some of the blurb below. Backbone is a post-noir narrative adventure. Become raccoon private eye Howard Lotor and explore dystopian Vancouver inhabited by animals as you uncover a deeply personal story of change and transformation.
Backbone is inspired by film noir, weird sci-fi, post-soviet aesthetics, modern political regimes, the works of Lynch and Kaufman, and existential philosophy of Sartre. It is a linear, cinematic narrative experience that subverts genre and challenges your perception of what it means to be a person. It's had a mixed reception on other platforms, partly as a consequence of promises in a previous Kickstarter campaign not all appearing in the final game. Various mechanics and ideas were once in the pitch but it evolved into a seemingly linear experience. Our colleagues at . The game does have its fans, though, and opinions are certainly varied. Are you intrigued by Backbone coming to Switch? Share: Comments ) Also heavily inspired by the similar sounding and stellar comic book series Blacksad, which recently had a... less-than-stellar video game adaptation. :v Looking forward to this one, I must say! Soooo a zootopia spiritual successer?
But with existential crisis instead of prejudice?
Sounds interesting. So far, I've been a big fan of every Raccoon's having an existential crisis sub-genre of video games. That is to say, I had a lot of fun with Donut County. Too many raccoons in games, need more Lemurs. If that idea interests you, if you haven't seen it already, might I direct you to BEASTARS (animated series)? It fits along those lines and is surprisingly excellent. Trying to save money, I've set a hard rule that I won't buy anything on game pass. It looks great "The works of Lynch and Kaufman" and "linear, cinematic narrative" feels kinda contradictory. Their movies are all over the place for the most part. Game looks good, though. Looks like a Blacksad clone. Leave A Comment Hold on there, you need to to post a comment...
