Ex-Skylanders devs announce Voidling Bound, a monster-taming game that looks more Spore than it does Pokemon

Remember Spore? I ne'er played the archetypal 1 myself, conscionable that crappy 1 Spore Creatures connected the DS, but I've agelong appreciated what Spore was trying to bash from afar. There's an astir whimsical macabre feeling to it, playing deity and each that, starring a carnal down the way of evolution. You don't spot excessively galore games similar that these days, though today's a spot of an objection fixed the announcement of Voidling Bound, a monster-taming/ cistron splicing crippled from a squad made up of erstwhile Skylanders devs.

I bring up Spore due to the fact that portion you bash look to cod up antithetic critters, the titular Voidlings, a examination to Pokemon doesn't truly consciousness apt. There's nary turn-based combat, it's each third-person and action-focused, not to notation the information that you really play arsenic the Voidlings a bulk of the clip it looks like. The main conception of the satellite is that you're a Space Wrangler, and there's a nasty parasite that's threatening to termination disconnected each life. So, naturally, you instrumentality to genetically modifying Voidlings to assistance you survive.

There's antithetic evolutionary lines you tin caput down for antithetic Voidlings, which is astir Digimon-esque successful quality I suppose, and they're customizable too, some stats-wise and looks-wise. I'm not wholly sold connected their designs, bully designs are benignant of a make-or-break concern for maine and monster-taming games, but the halfway conception sounds coagulated truthful it could beryllium a bully crippled to tinker astir with.

That's mostly it connected details for now, there's nary merchandise day to beryllium found, though it's seemingly owed retired successful 2026. If it takes your fancy, you tin wishlist Voidling Bound connected Steam.
