TENGAMI AVAILABLE NOW
Innovative pop-up style iOS game, Tengami, is now available on the App Store for iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. Designed on a custom-built engine, players explore the world around them just as they would a pop-up book.
Tengami, developed over the past three years, is available for $4.99 in the US, or £2.99 for UK players. The game has also released in Europe and Asia, featuring 15 different languages from French to Korean.
Wii U, OS X and Windows versions of the game are scheduled for release later this year.
During its development, Tengami has received a considerable amount of interest, being nominated for various awards including South by Southwest (SXSW) and Indiecade, or International Festival of Independent Game, awards,
Pop-Up Gameplay
Tengami features a unique gameplay and art style, drawing on one of the most beloved children’s toys, the pop-up book. Players interact with the game by unfolding, flipping and sliding the world to solve puzzles.
An adventure game set in Japan, Tengami immerses players in a pop-up world of ancient, and often quite dark, fairy tales.
The game reveals very little to begin with, encouraging players to explore the world around them in order to solve mysteries and puzzles.
Tengami runs on Nyamyam’s very own pop-up engine, the Paper Kit, to create as authentic an experience as possible. Indeed, Nyamyam claim that all 133 in game pop-ups could be created in real life using just paper, glue and scissors.
On top of the custom-built engine, Tengami utilises Havok Physics, AI and Animation and Wwise, Audiokinetic’s sound engine, alongside Bishamon, a visual effects tool developed by Matchlock, a Japanese company.
Tengami is available now from the App Store for iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch for $4.99/£2.99.
