During a recent INDIE Live Expo, developer Jett Williams announced their upcoming 2D physics-based metroidvania Moonbrella, slated to arrive on PC (via Steam), Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
Moonbrella is a physics-based 2D Metroidvania that uses a variety of umbrella tricks to ascend to the moon in a carefully crafted, interconnected world.
The game is being created with a strong focus on speedrunning and multiple ways to tackle the different platforming challenges.
The upgradeable umbrella introduces fresh obstacles for both new players and seasoned veterans, rewarding those who master its unconventional controls.
I grew up playing console games and fantasising about one day making my own,” shared lead developer Jett Williams.
He continued: So being able to publish them myself is a dream come true. It’s crazy just how much indies can do themselves these days. Seeing the recent response to the game from YouTube Shorts has been mind-blowing. I never expected to pull similar numbers to Megabonk, but here we are.
Moonbrella arrives on PC (via Steam), Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
