Homeward is about two adventurers’ struggle to find their way home in a whimsical world that is slowly slipping into destruction. Explore humanity’s new home among the stars in a system of tiny planets, unique interactions, and experience the coming of age of two friends in another world carelessly destroyed by humans.
Play as Milo, a young boy who went to see the stars, and Daisy, his lifelong friend and the only thing keeping him from getting lost. Oh and she’s also an ancient shape shifting robot.
A fusion of different game styles and mechanics, Homeward is a platformer, a physics puzzler, an interactive comic, and first of all an accessible, meaningful, exploration experience. The game can be played alone or co-op with one player controlling Milo and one player controlling Daisy. In this mode, the player playing Daisy can guide the other player, and help them learn the game to facilitate the teaching of gaming conventions to non gamers, and the next generation of gamers.
Homeward is a game for everyone in the truest sense. It is meant to be played and enjoyed by people ages 9 and up across the world, as the game contains no text and no spoken word aside from it’s title. Developed in Unity3D, Homeward is built for OSX and Windows, but is able to be exported to any console that accepts a gamepad input.
