‘90s-inspired 3D platformer Heart Chain Kitty heading to Switch Friday, August 20

Heart Chain Kitty will be making its way to the Nintendo Switch eight days from now - Friday, August 20!

Created by solo developer Bernhard Politsch of origamihero games, Heart Chain Kitty is a 3D platformer in the mold of Super Mario Sunshine and Banjo-Kazooie. Fittingly, the game features 40 surreal levels filled with secrets and unique powers-ups - such as the aptly-named Power Glove, Hat Glide, and Screw Ray (which can loosen and tighten screws and bolts found around the world) - along with a deeply felt, endearing narrative.

Those “in the know” might recognize some similarities between Heart Chain Kitty and the freeware series A Game with a Kitty. It turns out that Heart Chain Kitty is the official followup!

CAT-ASTROPHE STRIKES
In Heart Chain Kitty, a heart-shaped stranger arrives on Kitty Island - bringing very personal news: Kittey’s parents are missing. As Kittey searches for them, he must face what remains of a crumbling, dying world. From Kitty Island to the City of Cyclopia - through a huge comet-struck desert and the deepest pits of Darkside - Kittey's big journey may lead to some uncomfortable truths ...

As the walls of reality close in - and the line between dream and waking life is blurred - remember that everything will be just fine if you keep collecting those strange Power Hearts. If you get enough of those, you'll surely win! Right ... ?
