The idea is the brainchild of brothers Asger and Bo Strandby, with Press Play studio director Rune Dittmer saying “it is one of those games, where the basic premise is hard to describe, but once you have the controller in your hand, it is so obviously fun that you immediately get it.”
“So when Asger and Bo showed us the prototype at a party," Dittmer added, "it was a no-brainer to give them some time to elaborate on the core concept. And now a year later we are proud to announce Press Play’s second game for Xbox One.”
CVG goes hands on with the thought-splitting platformer. Denmark studio Press Play is best known for Max: The Curse of Brotherhood and Max and the Magic Marker; Two games which uncover the journey of a little kid with a strong vertical leap, a lot of carbonated drinks, and a magic marker that can draw objects into the world.
Will come to Xbox 360 too.
Max and the Curse of Brotherhood developer has "several unannounced original IP" on the way, you may recall, and it sounds like at least one of those games will be out before the end of the year. Max 2? Ori and the Blind Forest? Whatever it is, it'll release for both Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
