News:: 'Skye' exists in the soothing space between 'Spyro' and 'Journey'

In the midst of all the neon pixels, gun blasts, stylized narrative adventures and action-packed space romps scattered around the Indie Megabooth at GDC, Skye immediately caught my eye. It was crisp and bright, showcasing a rich fantasy world in a soft, cartoonish 3D style. Something about it was soothing at first sight -- perhaps it was the way the main character, a bright blue dragon, soared around the valley like a serpentine kite. Maybe it was the lush green grass draped over the landscape and its series of floating islands.

Whatever the reason, this is precisely the vibe that Skye developers at Puny Astronaut are going for: Eye-catching calm. And, so far, they're succeeding.
