Okomotive, the developer behind the FAR series, has revealed its brand new adventure title, Herdling, providing gamers with a brand new adventure.
Okomotive & Panic are set to debut Herdling in the realm of gaming. The title revolves around the adventure of making an expedition with "a herd of loveable beasts," encountering several mysteries and surprising obstacles in the journey to reach a mystery on the summit. According to developers, the main idea behind Herdling is to provide gamers with an immersive experience that is relatable not just to the users but to the actual creators themselves. Here's how representatives from both Okomotive & Panic express their optimism towards the upcoming title:
"With Herdling we wanted to start a new kind of adventure, not only for the players, but also for us. To create the herd of beasts and their mountainous world was an ambitious challenge for us, and we enjoyed every step of that journey," said Co-Founders Don Schmocker and Goran Saric.
Nick Suttner, Panic's Director of Publishing, also stated: "The FAR games are moody, moving masterpieces as far as we're concerned, so we couldn’t be more thrilled to work with Okomotive on their brand-new adventure. Herdling feels like a return to the scale and fidelity of something like Firewatch for us, so it’s really exciting to have it in our lineup. We’re huge fans of games like Inside and The Last Guardian - stirring, solo adventures that really communicate a sense of awe, loneliness, and a particular brand of companionship."
