A new developer diary for FRACT OSC shows an impressive progression in development; it being an exploration/puzzle game while at the same time teaching its player to make music with synths.
Alissa from Twinfinite writes: "Fract isn’t your typical music game."
indiePub has published an interview with indie game developer Richard E. Flanagan, maker of FRACT.
From the article:
"FRACT is a first-person puzzle game in the vein of Myst but set in an abstract, musical world of vivid, vector-style structures and anti-gravity objects. You solve various puzzles using in-world clues, which you must find, to unlock and revive massive mechanisms.
'I really wanted to build a world that felt completely alien, yet decipherable,' Flanagan said. 'While there are sections of the current 'beta' that achieve this more elegantly than others, the responses I’ve been getting are suggesting I got pretty close to the mark.'"
Layton Shumway writes: I'm a sucker for Myst. I'm also a sucker for Tron. (Yes, even Tron: Legacy.)
New indie game Fract combines both.
It's a first-person adventure game, now available in beta form as a free download for your PC or Mac. And it looks beautiful, with a polygon-based, neon-glowing art style reminiscent of games like Rez, Darwinia, and yes, Tron.
