Press release:
Barcelona, Spain. March 9th, 2023.
The Barcelona-based (Spain) indie games publisher Jandusoft and Eastbourne-based (the UK) indie games developer 9FingerGames, are today very happy and proud to announce that their twisted metroidvania “Zapling Bygone“, is now available for consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) via digital stores.

Zapling Bygone is a twisted metroidvania where you murder your foes and steal their abilities by wearing their skulls and absorbing their consciousness into your hive-mind.

Every ability is gained by killing a boss and stealing their skull. These abilities allow you to transverse the world in new and exciting ways as well as help you destroy your opponents.

Each Skull is unique

Discover a dark and twisted world

Explore a vast, dangerous and interconnected world with only you and your skulls as company. Reveal each biome in the world by collecting the skulls of people who lived in them.

Explore and conquer 6 biomes, each with their own enemies, bosses and backstory. When wearing the skulls of your foes you will gain access to their memories and unlock comic strip panels representing major events in their lives. The skulls will even talk to you throughout your adventure.

Features:
A pixelart metroidvania created by a solodev.
Tight but fair precision platforming.
Rewards exploration, with hidden secrets around every corner.
Piece together the history of an alien planet, while fighting off a foe from home.
