More from us About the Game AWAY: Journey to the Unexpected is a love letter to japanese animation made by a two-person team. It invites you to a very unusual journey to a charming and wacky 3D world populated by 2D characters. AWAY is a short light-hearted story mixing action, silly discussions, rogue-lite elements and smashing a bunch of cute creatures to overcome every obstacle in your way. A 3 to 5 hours journey around a colorful world featuring unique visuals, with 2D characters living in a 3D world. Unravel a funny and light-hearted story, with just the right pinch of rogue-lite elements. Recruit up to 8 quirky characters, each with their own unique abilities An anime-themed soundtrack composed by Kazuhiko Naruse and sung by Aya Majiro! “ Dear Villagers, we may have released some evil forces while working. Sorry, be safe ”, say the Labiworks signs all around. Your neighborhood seems to require some serious monster cleaning. AWAY could have been one of these bloody FPS if only you were not a harmless kid armed with... a wooden stick. As you throw yourself into danger investigating about missing parents and very strange events happening, you will have to find allies. Luckily enough your neighborhood is full of odd but powerful characters. You may not be deadly but you’re super good at making friends! From the mine-throwing angry tree to the missile-launching robot or the fireballing yet short-sighted sorcerer, you’ll be in good company! See the world through your allies’ eyes, first person style, whenever you call upon them. Beware, it can be quite a visual experience! And don’t exhaust them too fast, kiddo! AWAY: Journey to the Unexpected was made by a two-person team composed of Aurelien Regard (self-made video game developer who previously released The Next Penelope) and Jim Gennisson (former level designer on Rayman Legends and Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom).

Wikipedia Description WIKIPEDIA

After his parents disappear and monsters break into his grandparents' house, a teenage boy goes on an adventure to rescue his parents. Away: Journey to the Unexpected is an action adventure game played from a first-person perspective. The levels are procedurally generated, and each one has an item that allows players to recruit any non-player character from that area by successfully navigating a dialogue tree. Choosing the wrong dialogue option makes that character incapable of being recruited. Players can explore dungeons, collect loot, engage in first-person hack and slash combat. Recruited characters can temporarily replace the child in combat and use their attacks. To engage the end boss in battle, players must first recruit all eight of the recruitable characters. Roguelite elements streamline the process somewhat by unlocking the ability to fast travel to specific areas if they die.
