I never know what to expect from indie studio 17-Bit, which debuted more than a decade ago with strategy game Skulls of the Shogun and followed it up with the great roguelike Galak-Z, before taking a detour into VR with Song in the Smoke. Well, I do expect one thing: whatever wildly different ideas they tackle from one game to the next, they’ll be fueled by whatever founder Jake Kazdal is recently obsessed with.

“I’m addicted to physics-based games: I think they’re so much more rewarding, deeper, so much more interesting inherently, but I haven’t found any that are done really well,” he tells me. At least, not done well in the exact form he envisions: something that blends the slapstick physics silliness of a game like Human Fall Flat with a more classical, Zelda-esque style of adventure.
