, a puzzle-platformer by German developer gentlymad, is no longer in between release dates or Greenlight. The team is happy to announce the game is now available for purchase.

In Between drops players into the mind of a man who has been struck by something awful — it is not said what that awful thing is — and sets them on a path to freeing the protagonist from his own mind. The developers claim the story will be tragic, and hope that the entirely hand-painted pixel environments will lend the right atmosphere to the game’s narrative.

The game sees players solving a variety of puzzles, with the main mechanic being four-way gravity manipulation. So in order to figure out the solution to each puzzle, players will have to decide whether they want gravity pulling them up, down, or sideways. In Between features 60 levels, though it hasn’t been noted if this includes the segments of the game that are outside of the protagonist’s head. Naturally, as the game progresses, more mechanics are introduced, with the goal of constantly increasing the difficulty for players.

In Between is out now on Steamfor Windows, Mac, and Steam OS/Linux PCs, and those interested can learn more about it from the developer’s website, specifically the game’s pagewithin that site. In Between costs $11.99 USD normally, but as part of its launch sale, is only $10.19 (15% off), so if any readers are interested, they should give it a look before August 28, when the sale ends.
