Here we have with us Dropout Games, a team we met over at Game Hack Pune. It is an independent studio consisting of Sujeet Kumar and Ankush Madad who dropped out and started creating awesome games for mobile and PC audience.
UNWYND is made with pure intention of offering a very sleek and sharp puzzle experience to the fans of puzzle games. The game employs a simple swipe based mechanic in order to solve meticulously crafted combo – based puzzles. There is heavy emphasis on letting the player paint unique “looking” solution to each puzzle presented on the screen. Each solution can be achieved in multiple patterns depending on player’s approach to gestures.The core of game is based on color and symbol matchmaking. With swift gestures ,players need to pull in colored ribbons that mark the blocks on screen based on their respective colors resulting in different combinations of X and O patterns. UNWYND releases on Android and Windows Phone on 9th February and on iOS in March.
History
To start with the adventure, the studio needed a game. They dug their pile of concepts and searched for a small but interesting concept to start with. That’s where UNWYND came in picture. It was a concept that was prototyped by Sujeet in 2013 on Corona SDK and lied there still, waiting to be made for over a year and a half. He pitched it, showed the prototype and Ankush Madad agreed right away.
