▶

Sensua, also known as the Planet of the Senses, is one of the first alien planets Bea will visit on her way. The entire planets surface is covered with dense jungle, hiding many secrets. To overcome the obstacles that await her, Bea will need to use two of her strengths - her keen canine senses and relationship skills. In today's DevDiary, we introduce you to the inhabitants of the planet Sensua, and go through the process of their creation.
Our goal of immersive, mysterious atmosphere is well reflected in this concept art, which at the same time shows Bea's first meeting with one of the representatives of the local fauna - Drydon.
Since this sketch was created, the Drydon design went through several phases. The creatures' appearance kept oscillating between a nice, fluffy ball and a nasty, envious rodent.
Finally, the Drydons took a shape closer to what we know today. In these projects, a lot of emphasis was placed on the emotional expression of creatures - so that our main character could interact with them.
There were also designs for Drydon children and Drydon warriors, as well as designs for their clothing and other cultural works.
Based on these designs, the final three-dimensional versions of the Drydons were created - the ones that you and Bea will soon be able to meet on the Planet of the Senses.

Space Tail is a 2.5D adventure platformer, which immerses the player in a deep, emotional plot, and lets him explore new planets and interact with alien civilizations.

Every journey changes the point of view – it grows with the traveller. Our game tells a story about self-exploration, transformation and understanding the world around us.

The plot of the game is inspired by real events, when people began their conquest of space by sending animals to the stars. We intended it to be a kind of a tribute to all the animals that paved the way for humans to go into space. Most of these animals - the first astronauts, did not survive the journey. Our story tells of the adventures of a dog named Bea, who... managed to beat the odds.

Bea is a cheerful and courageous character, but the player must remember that she is just a... dog. She has all the characteristics of a mongrel - she barks, likes to chase her own tail, and learns about the world through her senses. Bea can sniff, listen and observe. These are the main mechanics of detective mode which will help her in exploring and understanding her environment.

Bea travels through space discovering more planets. Each planet is different and has its specific inhabitants, who can either become friends of the main character or be very unfriendly towards her. We are convinced that exploring this amazing world together with Bea will give the player a lot of satisfaction and pleasure.

Key Features:
- Become an astronaut dog and experience an extraordinary space adventure

- Solve unusual and sophisticated logic puzzles
- Test your agility by overcoming the dangers lurking on alien planets
- Explore the intriguing and thought-provoking story of the universe
- Immerse yourself in the stirring original soundtrack
