Built By Snowman, the creator of critically acclaimed mobile title Alto’s Adventure, has revealed ‘Distant,’ a game created in partnership with Australian indie developer Slingshot & Satchel.
Not much is known about the game so far, but a dark, dreary trailer featuring a caped, glowing hero jumping between column-like structures in a massive cave, has been released.
There’s no release date or price for the app yet, but the game is coming to Mac, PC, consoles and Apple TV. Unlike the developer’s previous titles, it looks like Distant isn’t coming to iOS and Android.
In a press release, Snowman says, “Distant takes you on a wondrous voyage through pastel dreamscapes, to prevent a calamity from consuming the world you once knew. Along the way, you’ll confront an inescapable past, and learn how much you’re willing to sacrifice in your search for solace.”
Snowman says its acting as the games publisher as well as a “creative partner” and that the title was originally created by Slingshot & Satchel.
Aesthetically, the game looks very similar to Alto’s Adventure, Snowman’s skiing endless runner that focuses on relaxing gameplay and more importantly, backflips.
Snowman is also working on Where Cards Fall with The Game Band.
