Ecotone is a platformer with elements of a logic game, developed by small independent studio Sundae Factory for PC. The game is the debut title of this French developer.

Story

The game invites you to a mysterious, dark world full of peculiar, exotic things. You play as a small, weird creature, whose face is hidden under a white mask. Your goal as a player is to discover the history of the protagonist and investigate the mysteries of the game’s world. The hero encounters many odd creatures, some of which are aggressive. The player has to solve the mystery – who is the game’s true hero and where exactly is he?

Gameplay

The game offers three visually distinctive areas, and each of them is further divided into 15 levels. Gameplay revolves around overcoming obstacles, eluding strange monsters, jumping from one platform to another, and solving environmental logic puzzles using the abilities that you gradually unlock as you make progress. In time, you will take control of other characters as well. Sometimes you will encounter strictly arcade sequences, where you have to prove your agility to a degree no lesser than in Limbo or Super Meat Boy. What is especially interesting about Ecotone, is the variety of levels – each one is different and unique in a way. One may require you to be fast and agile, while another emphasizes logical thinking, and yet another expects you stop time or invert the gravity in order to proceed. Each level begins with a short sequence introducing its rules.

Technology

Visually, Ecotone is a combination of 2D backgrounds and 3D objects. Locations are mostly dark, sometimes deprived of colors, which deepens immersion in the game’s world. When it comes to the artwork style, Ecotone bears much resemblance to World of Goo, a game by 2D Boy studio. No less important are sounds of environment and the soundtrack that adds to the game’s unique atmosphere.
