Hoa is a hand-drawn adventure platformer that looks like Studio Ghibli inspired it. The main heroine of the game is Hoa, who travels through the forest and uses the magic of nature. In the video, she made friends with beetles that allow her to get to various places and with someone like a caterpillar, which allowed the heroine to climb even higher. Besides, one of the enemies was presented – a certain robot that interferes with the passage and pushes Hoa away.

Skrollcat co-founder and art director Son Tra explained that while developing the game, the team wanted to take a calm and non-violent approach to solve mysteries, and therefore Hoa would do without cruelty. For the mentioned robot, for example, you need to jump over.

The developers promise an exciting and emotionally intense storyline that reveals the main character and the world’s essence. The project’s soundtrack was also recorded live to match his mood. You have to solve puzzles and face many magical creatures along the way. Some of them want to be friends and tell little stories.

Hoa will be released in April 2021 on PC and Nintendo Switch.
