- Cartoon Chaos: A vibrant, 3rd-person action-platformer set in a reimagined prehistoric world.
- The Primal Seed System: A deep customization mechanic allowing players to slot elemental and reality-bending abilities into weapons.
- Kickstarter Live: Multinational developer MEV.Studio seeks funding to polish core systems and expand the island of Wa-Kabum.
- A Different Kind of Hero: Follow Oogie’s journey to becoming the “brute” his tribe needs, rather than the hero they expected.
The indie scene is heading back to the Stone Age—but with a colorful, “Souls-lite” twist. MEV.Studio has officially announced the launch of its Kickstarter campaign for ‘UNGALAND’, accompanied by a playable prototype demo on Steam. Combining high-speed platforming with strategic combat, the game invites players to explore the mysterious and reactive island of Wa-Kabum.
The Legend of Oogie and the Bunga Tribe
Players step into the loincloth of Oogie, a member of the Bunga tribe. Tasked with a sacred ritual to save his people, Oogie must navigate a world filled with ancient ruins and aggressive wildlife. Unlike traditional prehistoric tales, UNGALAND features a narrative twist: to save his tribe, Oogie must shed his innocent outlook and return as a hardened “brute.”
The environment is a key character itself. The island of Wa-Kabum is designed to be highly reactive, with secrets and rewards tucked away in corners that only the most daring (or reckless) explorers will reach.
Combat Evolution: The Primal Seed System
The standout feature of UNGALAND is its Primal Seed mechanic. These artifacts allow players to “evolve” their combat style on the fly.
- Ability Slotting: Slot seeds directly into weapons to add effects like freezing, teleportation, or even creating localized black holes.
- Strategic Combos: The game encourages experimentation, letting players mix-and-match abilities to find the most efficient way to take down the island’s massive bosses.
- Reflex-Based Action: While the visuals are charmingly cartoonish, the combat demands precision—blocking and dodging are essential to survival against the island’s diverse enemy roster.
