Skaramazuzu News

I’m not saying that Zuzu, the star of melancholic 2D adventure Skaramazuzu, is definitely inspired by that Adventure Time bit where the deer takes off its hooves like gloves. But I am saying that if it were, it’d have my full support, because the freak deer deserves to live on forever, even as a shadow wandering a gothic purgatorial landscape in an unrelated game.

We got a trailer for this one a few weeks back, and the game itself just dropped on Steam yesterday. It’s got that specific blend of Hollow Knight: Silksong -esque maudlin and whimsy that I personally love, skirting around the edges of both without slipping too readily into Tim Burton territory. The artstyle is crisp and wintery, the writing is goofy, and everything that moves looks like it evolved from the same dead tree branch. Feast your hooves on the trailer below:

Gather round, Lost Souls.


For the very first time, enter our mysterious world of development as we shine a light on what we are working on behind-the-scenes throughout April!




We have reworked the detection system, so that Zuzu can better detect other characters throughout their journey, and added some new scenes for them to explore too!





We’ve improved not only optimizations on the world level loader, but also the accessibility of the game, with added options for the sound, dialogue, speed, and more!





This coincides with our reworked sound system - now including 3D sounds - to add a natural immersiveness.

We’re also excited to reveal that we’ve integrated some important Steam features such as achievements, and added further improvements to the save system!





What has the Audio Team been up to?

• Creating music tracks for the new levels.
  
• Creating new cave soundscapes based on real locations in Greece.
  
• Creating additional SFX for all the characters.
  
• Creating a new set of SFX for the interface.
  
• Reworked all the sounds for the forest level.
  
• Reworked all the sounds for the graveyard level.
  
• Improved the quality of some sounds.
