It’s always good to hear developers talking about the games they are working on. A lot of times you can really hear the sincerity and passion they have for the game they are building. That’s why when I saw that the publishers, Assemble Entertainment, for the upcoming action-platformer game Itorah put out a developer diary video, I had to check it out. It wasn’t very long either, so it was a good way to learn more about the game directly from Grimbart Tales themselves.
Getting to know the story better and what they are trying to bring out in the art alone was an interesting aspect. It’s quotes like this from Artur Bäcker, Grimbart Tales Lead Artist, Creative Director, and Co-Founder, “I can promise you; behind the many layers of color lies a deep, emotional, and gloomy story that will appeal to all ages and leave you curious for more.”
Passion is a huge aspect of when it comes to whether a game is created to be great or mediocre and after this short dev diary, I am pretty excited for Itorah. They announced that the game has an expected launch window of Spring 2022 on PC via Steam, so I’ll have to keep a close eye on this game as it gets closer to release.
