Even the Ocean announced for the Nintendo Switch

Ratalaika Games have been pretty busy with Nintendo Switch ports in the past few weeks, and it’s far from over. Today, they announced yet another game for the console, though this one will not be released this week. It’s called Even the Ocean, and it was originally developed by Analgesic Productions (who previously worked on Anodyne). It’s a 2D platformer that features a unique narrative about identity, balance, and important environmental issues.

Even the Ocean will be released later this year worldwide (Europe, North America, and Japan), and it will cost 800 Yen (price for Europe and North America will be announced at a later date).

Here’s a teaser trailer, some details, the list of key features, and some screenshots:

From the creators of ‘Anodyne’ comes a grand story about Aliph, a lowly power plant technician for Whiteforge City, who finds her world turned upside-down after a routine maintenance trip goes awry. Now, working directly with Whiteforge’s Mayor Biggs to face an unknown menace, Aliph must navigate her newfound power and influence to save the city. Aliph’s identities, environmental issues and the world’s fate all hang in the balance of Light and Dark energies.

• Balance your energy bar with Light and Dark energies to overcome diverse obstacles and stabilize the city.
• Meet and talk with new friends, powerful allies, and enigmatic travellers.
• Explore the beautiful and strange geography in the overworld, towns, and environments surrounding Whiteforge City.
• Super customizable difficulties and play styles: choose between Complete, Story-only, or Gameplay-only options to make your experience your own.

Even the Ocean (Switch – eShop) will be released later this year. The Upcoming Games page has been updated!
