Minority Media, the studio behind Papo & Yo and the upcoming Silent Enemy, announced a new game at a panel at GDC. Gameinformer reports that Cali is coming to "new-gen" consoles, and Canada Media Fund have previously hinted at Android and iOS releases.
Cali will explore the concept of falling in love with a non-playable character. An ambitious undertaking.
"It tells the story of Massi, a teenager caught up with his peers for the Sacred Rite, a centuries-old tradition that sends the strongest adolescent boys to the Second Sun. In a tragic mix of circumstances, Massi is separated from the group. As Massi, players will navigate to the Second Sun with the help of Cali, a beautiful and mysterious creature called a pixan, with features of both a majestic butterfly and shy human girl. And while Cali is the secret to Massi's future success, there is a deadly reason why she cannot, or will not, help."
