"With an evocative, homespun art-style and lilting, original soundtrack by Chuck Ragan, survival has never been this enjoyable," the press release added.
Back in August, Curve Digital announced that "The Flame in the Flood, and "Human: Fall Flat" are both coming to Nintendo's flagship console. Developed by The Molasses Flood, "The Flame in the Flood" features a young female protagonist named Scout. She is accompanied by her dog, Aesop, who has the ability to fetch their supplies and sense danger.
Players need to look after Scout's needs like maintain her energy, quenching her thirst, and providing warmth and shelter.
The people behind the game are the same people who worked on "BioShock," "Guitar Hero," "Rock Band," and "Halo." With players taking on the character of Scout, they ride aboard a raft to navigate around a huge river. The river came about after a massive flood that resulted in the land turning into groups of islands.
"The Flame in the Flood" was first released in February 2016 for PlayStation 4. It also rolled out on the Xbox One as well as on Microsoft Windows.
