Daniel Fineberg, co-creator of indie hit Sable, announced his newest game during the Wholesome Games Showcase earlier today. Developed by Fineburg and a team of friends and collaborators with funding support from Phantom Friends, In The Drift is a dreamy narrative platformer about fixing the internet in space.
Play as Luna, a young engineer with a daunting responsibility: maintaining an internet connection for the people of the Belt as the Drift pulls ever harder on the place they call home. Drive across drifted asteroids in your truck, repairing rusted radio towers and other crumbling infrastructure in an attempt to keep people connected.
Return home to your ship after each job, exploring the space and connecting with the rest of your crew. Meet a colourful cast of characters and uncover a gently woven story about finding human connection in a slowly unravelling world.
Featuring around 5 hours of gameplay, players can look forward to light puzzle-platforming elements and a dreamy soundtrack by Laryssa Okada, who is best known for her work on Manifold Garden, Dorfromantik, and Last Time I Saw You.
