Description
Semblance is an innovative platformer with deformable terrain, set in a beautiful minimalist world. It’s a game that asks, what if you could deform and reshape the world itself? Semblance takes the idea of a ‘platform’ in a platformer and turns it on its head. What if platforms were actually part of the gameplay, part of the way you solved problems?

Explore a world where the default is soft, where the property of 'hardness' doesn't exist. Each of the game's three worlds explore a new consequence of a planet that can shift, change and deform. Beat back the strange, crystalline infection of hard material by freeing the world's life essences and uncover the dark cause for its appearance.

  • Unique and innovative deforming platform gameplay:
    Can’t reach a collectible? Just deform and elevate a piece of the ground so that the point you jump from is higher. Nasty spikes in the way? Just deform and push-down the ground lower so that you can pass by. Squish, bounce, squash and transform the world- and yourself to solve problems.
  • Beautiful Minimalist Aesthetic Design:
    Explore 3 worlds bursting with colorful minimalist charm, quirky critters, and calming vistas. Become hypnotized by each world's dynamically layered score, each with a hint of African aural distinction.
  • Explore non-linearly:
    The game allows you to move between puzzles as you wish, never forcing you to find a solution in order to progress and enabling you to come back later. Similarly, the game's narrative is presented expansively, allowing you to explore- and piece together the story for yourself as you roam the game.

Short but sweet

casually played through it for abit longer than 3 hours Very beautiful design and the puzzle pieces advanced in a good pace scaling up the complexity of the puzzles along the way all the way until the end, some places did send me out of bounds but i found my way around those issues, all in all a great game and i would hope there's more like this out there.

Great little Indie game

Fun concept, nice visuals and some reasonable puzzles. A very well designed game, and great for a few evening's relaxation.

Deform the platform

Finally! A platformer where I can decide how high or low a platform should be.

Nice short puzzle platformer

Puzzle platformer with a blob. I couldn't quite grasp the story. I understand that the non-verbal storytelling is a design choice, but in this instance they could have explained it a little further. Apparently there are also collectibles, but there is no indication on how many have been collected thus far. Pacing is quite OK. It's not getting repetitive, but there's still some meat to the gameplay. I don't think I'll play this again, but it was a decent experience, a slightly different kind of puzzle platformer.
