One of the games from IGN’s Indie Open House project, Rapscallion, has seen its very first demo released today. The game is an interesting-looking platformer from new indie developer Runt, one of the contestants from The Next Game Boss.
Runt describes the game as a physics-based 2D action platformer. That’s certainly a mouthful, but judging by the trailer, it looks like a lot of fun. Beyond the parkour-style single-player action, the game also has a multiplayer mode, leaderboards, and Achievements to unlock, as well as Time Attack and Exploration modes. It’s a pretty game, with visuals somewhat reminiscent of the recently-released Outland.
“Runt plans to release many demos before the final release of Rapscallion. It’s an excellent way to get feedback from our fans as we progress in the production of our game,” said Runt CEO Tobias Batton in a press release.
