There are plenty of brilliant indie games out there but many of them never reach mobile platforms – for once, though, one game that looks really interesting is coming our way. Cloud Chasers by Blindflug Studios (the same folks who made First Strike) is going to launch on Android and iOS on the 15th of October. Subtitled “A Journey of Hope”, Cloud Chasers sees you take control of a father and daughter duo, Farmer Francesco and Amelia, as they migrate across an endless desert in the hopes of going somewhere better. Driven by their story, you’ll need to keep the pair alive by managing their health and water – and to harness water, you’ll need to get up on your glider and harvest the clouds. Check out the official release trailer:
There’s a haunting beauty to Cloud Chasers and the game looks well executed on all fronts – no wonder it’s caught attention at multiple indie conventions. Once again, Blindflug addresses an important issue in its game – while First Strike addressed the issue of nuclear mutually assured destruction, Cloud Chasers addresses global migration, an issue I’m sure many of us are now acutely aware of, and Blindflug hopes to give us a different perspective of it.
