Hardcore action platformer WarriOrb launching today on Steam

Media Release:

The devilishly difficult platformer WarriOrb, developed by indie studio Not Yet, is out now on Steam 🙂

Running on both Windows and Linux, WarriOrb invites players to take on the role of a mighty demon trapped in an unlikely host: a weaponized talking ball with agile limbs and a taste for violence.

In this Soulsborne-inspired jaunt where death is always just around the corner, players push forward to regain WarriOrb’s freedom – and its original demonic form. After all, we’re talking about the Spirit of the Unknown, forced into a pathetic ball body and blamed for the failure of a Very Important Summoning Spell – one that was supposed to bring the Wizard’s daughter back to life (but didn’t). Now it’s up to players to find another way to resurrect her and make things right!

“The idea of WarriOrb started with our first draft of the main character, which was basically an egg with legs. We decided to make our protagonist really simple right out of the gate, since this was our very first title. However, soon afterward we realized that we wanted to implement every feature we enjoyed while playing other games. The development process then became an exercise in trial and error – just like the game itself!” – Csaba Molnár (Co-Founder and CEO, Not Yet)
