Step into a hand-painted watercolour village in this stunning indie adventure

Nice work take time. And whereas the artists behind the beautiful watercolour journey Dordogne had deliberate to launch this yr, the lovingly hand-painted journey will now launch in 2022.

I first noticed Dordogne again once I penned Rock Paper Shotgun's weekly screenshots column, shocked by illustrator Cedric Babouche's means to show layers of painted watercolour right into a full 3D world. It's flown quietly since then, popping up at Wholesome Direct showcases, with plans to launch someday this Autumn.

However whereas there's been no formal announcement, this week GameInformer noticed that Dordogne has been picked up by Focus Leisure (previously Focus House Interactive). The writer's itemizing for recreation now lists a launch on October fifth, 2022—roughly a full yr later than supposed.

Dordogne desires to inform a heat, intimate story of Mini, a girl in her 30s visiting the house of her recently-passed grandmother. You play as a 10-year-old model of Mimi exploring hazy, vibrant reminiscences, rendered nearly dreamlike by the watercolour visuals.

It's a pitch that'll be made or damaged by that beautiful paintings. And if it takes the developer a short time longer to color an ideal image, I'm more than pleased to attend one other yr.
