Press release:
27th February 2018, UK – Award-winning international games label Team17 and independent developer Villa Gorilla have today released a new tilt-alising trailer for its forthcoming charming pinball platform game Yoku’s Island Express.

The trailer showcases some of the abilities that newly appointed postmaster, Yoku the dung beetle, will discover as he flips and bumps around Mokumana island using a unique blend of pinball mechanics in his noble quest to save the island… and deliver the mail!

There are many quirky hidden abilities and collectibles to discover including:

The Noisemaker, a party whistle that acts as Yoku’s postal horn
The Slug Vacuum, capable of sucking up the pesky slugs that litter the island and utilising their explosive power to clear stubborn rocks and reveal new routes to explore
Take the plunge with the Dive Fish, which will allow Yoku to dive the depths of the island & more!

Yoku’s Island Express is flipping on to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch™ and PC in Q2 2018.
