Forward to the Sky announced

Wei Chen writes in to announce Forward to the Sky, a 3D Zelda-alike in development by Taiwanese indie devs Magichnology.

The premise:

Reveal the story of the sky tower. Forward to the Sky is a third person action adventure game in the sky tower ruin. You are going to collect all the crystal pieces to connect the story and everything will be revealed once Princess reaches the top level.

If that sounds familiar, it’s probably because we covered this game as part of a Back to Back back in May. The game focuses on puzzles, combat, and platforming; 3D Zelda, essentially but with more of a platforming focus, and set in a giant tower. There’s a trailer which shows off the gameplay pretty well:

Forward to the Sky is planned for release for Windows, Mac and Linux in early 2015 at an estimated $9.99 price point. In the meantime, it’s on Steam Greenlight, where it awaits your upvote.
