Contrast is coming to PC May 2013 and is calling you to visit its shadowy world. Set in the 1920’s players will control young girl Didi who dares to delve into the mysteries of her family no matter what deep dark secrets they may reveal. The game world is no ordinary place either as it is filled with wondrous illusionists, circus performers and cabaret singers. Do you trust them and more importantly should you?
The game seamlessly blends it’s unique hybrid 2D/3D puzzle gameplay together. You can instantly jump into the shadow world on a whim to help you traverse an area or reach a secret high above. Contrast constantly challenges you to think not only about the objects in the world but also the shadows they cast, where the light sources are and how that can help you achieve your goal. Combine this unique style of gameplay with the vaudeville setting and we’re in for one hell of a brain teaser that we can’t wait to check out. Be sure to head past the jump and check out Contrast in action in the beta gameplay trailer below.
