This Friday (July 30th), Cucchi will be released on Nintendo Switch. Developed by Julián Palacios Gechtman and Fantastico Studio, it’s not so much a game as a playable archive of Enzo Cucchi’s works of art (Enzo Gucchi is an italian painter).

Ahead of the launch on Friday, Fantastico Studio have shared the launch trailer for the game:

Since the late ’70s, Cucchi has worked with many kinds of techniques and materials, creating a wide and diverse imaginary that has now been transformed into an impossible videogame chimera.
