Nitrome is a game company well known for creating smaller games with beautiful pixel art, very reminiscent of games like Mutant Mudds and Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. Yesterday, Nitrome’s Twitter account was updated to show a brief video featuring some gameplay of their new game Flat Pack.

This game follows their more traditional 2D structure, but it comes with a twist of traversing a 3D environment in the form of a cube, and possibly other kinds of shapes. It looks really interesting and fun to play, so I’m interesting to see how far deeper they can go. It almost feel like some sort of 2D version of Super Mario Galaxy. The game is currently in development in Unity and will come out this year for mobile platforms. I’ll be keeping my eye out on this one.

Really excited to show you Flat Pack, a 2D game played around a 3D shape (currently in dev!) #gamedev #pixelart #madewithunity #Flatpack pic.twitter.com/9R4HSm0WyQ
