Press release:
Paris, France, August 18, 2021.
The US/France-based indie games publisher Hatinh Interactive and France-based indie games developer Nerd Monkeys, today announced with great joy and thrill that their award-winning hand-drawn puzzle platformer “Out of Line” is now available for the Nintendo Switch in Europe via the Nintendo Eshop.
Inspired by Studio Ghibli, modern philosophy and impressionist art, the game has players embark on a journey through beautifully illustrated vistas in search of protagonist San’s identity.
Out of Line is also available on Switch in Europe and PC worldwide via Steam, Epic Games Store, GOG.com, Gamesplanet.com, Humble Store and Windows Store. The title will launch on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 later this year.
“After successful launches on PC and Switch in Europe earlier this summer, we’re pleased to share Out of Line’s artistic marvel with North American fans today,” says Francisco Santos, Lead Artist at Nerd Monkeys.
“We hope San’s search for freedom and expression will inspire players to escape the assembly line in pursuit of their own goals and creative ambitions.”
Out of Line on Switch is visually stunning docked or in handheld mode, allowing players to absorb each impressive brushwork at home or on the go. As fans use San’s mysterious spear to strategically navigate past the Factory’s many obstacles, they’ll collect memory fragments that shed light on the young man’s existence and his fight against the rubber and cogs that once defined him.
Key features:
• Enjoy dozens of visually impressive puzzles
• Learn to master the mechanics of the spear
• Interact with beautiful hand-drawn environments
• Learn from extraordinary characters
• Uncover the mystery surrounding San’s story
