Grey Box & Tequila Works Release New ‘RiME’ Dev Diary

Grey Box, Six Foot, and Tequila Works have just put out a brand-new developer’s diary video for their upcoming title RiME.

This new video dives deep into the process of making a puzzle adventure game that’s accessible and intuitive while still feeling fun and rewarding. That’s meant designing environments and challenges to reveal information to the player through the exploration of quieter features like light, sound, perspective, and time rather than simple text prompts. These subtler traits build over the course of the journey to create a deeper sense of personal investment and discovery while traversing the mysterious island your character has awakened upon.

RiME is set to release on the PC, PlayStation 4, and XBox One on May 26 and is available for digital pre-order now. It will be coming to the Nintendo Switch sometime during the summer of 2017.
