News::Expand Preview | Analog Addiction

Analog Addiction writes: "Shapes. We deal with them on a daily basis yet they are almost forgotten, however we have seen many game developers utilise shapes to showcase some interesting ideas. Thomas Was Alone provided a deep tale of society, one that allowed us to care for the multitude of different shapes on screen. Then there was Sound Shapes which offered us a beautiful musical selection as we tackled some difficult platforming sections, all as a simple shape. Expand is another title looking to focus on a shape, a simple square to be exact. Expand offers its own version of deep meaning, as well as a beautiful musical selection and ever-increasing levels of difficulty. Though Expand may have traits from other successful uses of shapes, Expand quickly showcases that behind its simple design there is a unique amount of challenge. I recently had the opportunity to go hands-on with Expand, as I got to experience an early build which was showcased at this years Tokyo Game Show."
