Cozy avid gamers, we’ve acquired one other enjoyable little co-op title on deck. It’s known as Hidalgo, and I’ve to say we’ve by no means seen something fairly prefer it. Spanish developer Infinite Thread Video games explains that it’s really based mostly on Miguel de Cervantes’ Don Quixote. (“Hidalgo” is a noble designation.)
“Hidalgo is a comfy and healthful journey of Don Quijote of La Mancha, with distinctive artwork that simulates a hand-crafted tabletop mannequin. It permits you to expertise the story with revolutionary mechanics, superior landscapes and attention-grabbing boss fights along with a household rediscovering themselves. […] All through 5 chapters, you’ll relive essentially the most iconic moments of the novel, enjoying as Don Quijote and Sancho. You’ll have the prospect to battle windmills and even rule an island, all within the quest to win the center of the one you love Dulcinea.”
The sport funded in Kickstarter again in April for €51,288 and is already on Steam with a demo. It’s all very cute and kid-friendly; wait till you see the Windmill Large boss. It really has a little bit of the Little Massive Planet vibe, for good causes. Amusingly, Steam informs me that it’s much like Minecraft Dungeons, which… might be not true (the devs themselves liken it to issues like It Takes Two). It does embody co-op, nonetheless, so we’ll control it!
