Description
Reclamation is a charming 2.5D Metroidvania platformer sculpted out of real clay. Assets are sculpted and 3D scanned using efficient, state of the art photogrammetry techniques for a truly unique visual appearance that will stand apart from its competitors.
History
Back in early 2019 Matt was developing a photogrammetry pipeline to be used for scanning human faces into State of Decay 2 when he had the brilliant idea to scan a claymation figurine. The results of this simple experiment were so compelling that just had to do something with it. More experiments around level sculpting quickly followed, along with the seeds of gameplay design. By the end of the year he had a fully functional tech demo of Reclamation. His good friend Jeremy was brought onboard to help with the sculpting and to handle the business side of running an indie studio. They have been smushing clay into computers ever since.
Features
Become your enemies as you explore a sprawling, interconnected world on a mission to restore the great beast Oogrim to its former glory. Discover 18 controllable enemies to possess, each with a unique combination of abilities that offer variation to moment to moment gameplay as well as access to new map areas that were previously inaccessible. But be warned, possessing a new body requires giving up your old one, so choose wisely.
