Super Cloudbuilt Announced for the Summer
Skövde, Sweden - May 24th, in the year of our Lord
2017 - Swedish developer Coilworks and publisher Double
Eleven have announced the changeable visual styles in their
upcoming title Super Cloudbuilt, which releases on PlayStation™
4, Xbox One and Steam this summer.
A newly-added graphics setting allows players to change, with a
dramatic variation in style, how their game looks. One of the
defining aspects of Super Cloudbuilt is its strong visual style:
bold colours, bright effects and gorgeous cross-hatched shading,
which give the effect that the game is being hand-drawn in real
time. So when the art style is so central to the game’s design,
why allow players to see it differently?
Super Cloudbuilt is a sci fi rocket-parkour game, with emphasis
on exploration, speedrunning and skill. Players have several
paths to complete each level, the option to slow down, explore
your environment and collect powerups, and experience multiple
endings. You’re in charge of how the game plays, so why not how
it looks as well?
By switching the game to 'Painted' mode, players can turn off
the cross-hatching and enjoy the world as though it was a
watercolour piece of art. By selecting ‘Key Colors’ mode, you
can remove the colors from much of the background so that
obstacles and enemies stand out brightly and are quickly
identified. If you pause your game just right in ‘Sketch’, your
screenshots look like they’re torn from the pages of an artist’s
sketchpad.
“During the debug process, we saw hints of what is now ‘Low
Noise’ mode and liked it so much that we really wanted the
players to see it," said Anders Davallius, creative director at
Coilworks. "We decided to give players more flexibility based on
their personal preference, giving them new ways to experience
Super Cloudbuilt by providing styles that we thought looked cool
and felt unique.”
