Pitiri 1977

This is just perfect...! It is my brother's birthday and this Claw-creature crashes into our house and kidnaps Sammy! I suppose it is up to me to play the hero now... Pitiri 1977 is an adventure-platformer offering extensive exploration in both world and narrative, paying homage to its classic predecessors through gameplay and backstory. The story is set in 1977 (the notable year of Star Wars IV, the Atari 2600, the Voyager One spacecraft and Led Zeppelin's “Presence”), within an impressive world crafted with hand-painted visuals, characters, robust physics, and a 1970s soundtrack that expands as you unlock abilities. You assume the role of a child possessing supernatural powers, whose brother has been abducted by a mysterious evil. In your mission to rescue your brother, you navigate a warped 70s sci-fi utopia that exists beyond the familiar... Key Features include a stylish 70s Setting, story-driven gameplay, a Metroidvania-style adventure, hand-painted Levels, Characters and Objects, a solid Physics engine, cool 1970s Music, five supernatural Abilities, a Sandbox Level Editor (Beta), and the full soundtrack. Winner of the 'Content Award 2010' for Games and the Impulse XC Sponsorship 2010, Pitiri 1977 is shaping up to be a visually striking game. It is easy to pick up, feeling like a familiar platformer enhanced by special abilities, and is visually appealing in almost every way – especially the fantastic cutscene. An excellent platformer game that is extremely well polished and features very creative gameplay mechanics. A jawdropping cinematic intro and an introductory level in a beautifully handpainted suburban landscape signal that these developers mean serious business.
