An intriguing, mysterious adventure is on the horizon for 2015. Venezuelan studio Guaguan released a teaser that showcases a little robot awakening among gears and contraptions; this is SYSTOLE .

The studio describes SYSTOLE as an adventure game that features environmental challenges and puzzles. The protagonist, a small robot, is born and “left without purpose.” Abandoned, the robot seeks to discover its purpose, events that led to the beginning, and more about the mysterious world.

The robot has magnetic powers that skillfully let it traverse between ledges and platforms. This will also be a way to evade hostilities in the areas. The developers designed the world to be open, so any area can be explored first, and even manipulated to venture further. For instance, a lava zone can be changed with a Cooling System to freeze the hot rivers. Furthermore, the players acquire masks to unlock new abilities to help reach previously unattainable zones for secret goodies or to progress.

SYSTOLE is primarily developed in Unity for PC and Mac. There’s a strong possibility for publishing on consoles as well, and the developers are looking at the PS Vita, PS4, Xbox One, and Wii U. There will be a crowdfunding campaign in February 2015 along with a demo of the game. Check out the their websiteand look to IGM for future updates.
