Bigmode, an Indie Publisher, was founded by videogamer videogamedunkey, and his wife. Announcement His first project, the atmospheric metroidvania Animal Well (an independent Chicago studio called Shared Memory), was his first.
Animal Well invites visitors to explore the bizarre underground world of a well home to many different creatures. Some are so deeply hidden it can take many years to uncover.
They promise nonlinear gameplay, no battles, meaningful interactions between animals (not every one of them are hostile), and the environment.
Animal Well will be released on PC (Steam), and PlayStation 5. Although the release date is not yet known, the developers announced the project in February. It was originally scheduled to launch on PC (Steam) and PlayStation 5.
The Animal Well page was already on the Bigmode site, but it doesn’t provide new details about the game. Although the project is a personal effort of Billy Basso in his own development, Dan Adelman joined it in 2021.
