Demagog Studio and Untold Tales have announced their next project, The Cub.
Parkour through the remains of humanity, listening to smooth apocalyptic-wave tunes and discovering more as you play, The Cub is slated for PC release with no release date yet.
Source: Untold Tales
Demagog Studio is a Serbian and Tokyo-based collective behind the poignant yet zen post-apocalyptic Golf Club: Wasteland. In The Cub, the team is returning to the same neon-lit, satirical dystopian ruined Earth, but from a different angle in terms of gameplay and intersecting story.
GAME FEATURES:
Inspired By the Classics, Made for the 21st Century
The game is inspired by the classic, old-school tough SEGA games of the 90s – The Jungle Book, Aladdin, Lion King – but with modern twists and ideas. Platform parkour through the remains of humanity and a world of urban ruin peppered with references as to how humanity might one day perish. Crumbling brutalist tower blocks and abandoned genetics labs, depleted chemical mines, and overgrown battlefields – each level has a story to tell. Crack environmental puzzles that keep you guessing, and stay one step ahead of the wicked humans back from Mars that are pursuing you in a twisted apocalyptic safari hunt.
This World Tells Tales | The Story Behind The Cub
Earth fell to ruins after multiple wars, rampant inequality, and ecological disaster. In the final months, the ultra-rich fled to Mars leaving billions behind to die. A new ecosystem feeding off the chemical waste left behind evolves without humans. But a few mutant children who have developed immunity and the skills to survive here still roam. You are one such child. Years pass and those on Mars venture back to Earth. After spotting a small mutant child, a hunt ensues. This sets off a journey of escape, exploration, and discovery through the urban ruins of humanity coupled with frantic cat and mouse chases.
We're so excited to reveal #TheCub from the brilliant minds at @demagog_studio! Check out the trailer and first screenshots!
