Bolt Riley, le jeu d'aventure reggae sur Kickstarter

October 25th - via: jeuxvideo.com
Une nouvelle campagne Kickstarter vient d'être lancée aujourd'hui pour soutenir le développement d'un jeu d'aventure centré autour de la musique reggae. Celui-ci nous fait suivre le parcours d'un certain Bolt Riley (toute allusion avec Bob Marley est fortuite, hein…) des rues de Trenchtown en Jamaïque à la renommée internationale. La formation d'un groupe ne sera que la première étape vers la gloire, il faudra également trouver l'inspiration pour écrire les chansons, et réussir à la jouer correctement sur scène. Conçu comme un jeu d'aventure point and click à l'ancienne avec inventaire et personnages hauts en couleur, Bolt Riley profite de l'expertise des créateurs de la série Quest for Glory qui se sont associés au projet. (Read More)
