TCHIA - Preview Build Gameplay

TCHIA Preview Build Gameplay

I was offered to play an early preview build of Tchia, a new game coming from Awaceb. The developers of Awaceb are from New Caledonia, which is the inspiration of the game's vibrant world. In this game you can explore the open world, complete a variety of tasks and experience fun physics all the while.

Join Tchia on her tropical open-world adventure as she sets off to rescue her father from the cruel tyrant, Meavora, ruler of the archipelago. Climb, glide, swim, and sail your boat around beautiful islands as you explore a physics-driven sandbox. Face the fabric soldiers created by Meavora in open encounters where your creativity gives you the edge. Take control of any animal or object you can find, make new friends and jam on your fully playable Ukulele. A poetic coming-of-age story inspired by New Caledonia.

SOUL JUMPING
Tchia's special gift lets you take control of any animal or object you can find. With over 30 animals and hundreds of objects to choose from, fly around as a bird, explore the ocean as a fish or dig for treasures as a dog! Use your unique soul-jumping abilities to explore solve puzzles, and uncover secrets.

EXPLORATION & TRAVERSAL
Jump and glide your way across a vast archipelago and use the Tricks system to perform cool stunts and dives. The free climbing mechanic lets you ascend anything in the world without restriction including any physics-driven tree. Take to the ocean waves, and sail your customizable boat across turquoise lagoons and dive around coral reefs and shipwrecks.

UKULELE
Just jamming by yourself or playing alongside other inhabitants of the archipelago, your fully playable ukulele will be a trusty companion throughout the game. Use it at key story moments during rhythm sections, or play unlockable melodies at any point in the open world to trigger special events such as attracting animals, triggering rainfall…

STORY & MUSIC
Take Tchia on a heartfelt adventure and meet a diverse cast of characters inspired by New Caledonian cultures. Fully animated cutscenes voiced in traditional language will punctuate your journey while an original orchestral score infused with local sounds creates a unique and immersive world.

CUSTOMIZATION & ITEMS
Stylize Tchia’s clothing and boat with hundreds of unlockable cosmetic items ranging from a traditional look to the most over the top options. You will also unlock useful and fun tools along the way such as a flashlight, slingshot, compass, camera...

NEW CALEDONIA
The world of Tchia was inspired by New Caledonia, A tiny island in the Pacific Ocean, homeland of Awaceb's co-founders. Inspiration was taken from the rich and varied local landscapes, cultures, music, languages, folklores and traditions and was used to create a fictional world and to tell a universal story for all to understand and enjoy. The characters are voiced by local talent in traditional languages, and subtitled in many languages including English, French, Russian, Chinese, German, and more.

oh, I missed this upload in my flood of morning YT notifications ... and then YT recommended it to me in a post-video play "matrix" display. Watching it now!

[pedmands]

This game looks SO good! Thank you for showcasing it so it is on my radar.

Absolutely loving the aesthetic of this game. Super colorful and calming looking. I can't wait to see more!

[MiffetBlue]

Definitely looking forward to more of this one! I’ve watched you play enough video games now to see that the love is of video games as a whole, not just certain ones. I was done when you became a dolphin. I’ve said for years that in my next life I want to come back as a dolphin, playful and free to roam. Oh, and smart…..that too!

This kinda reminds me of Obbits. I like it. Favorite part is the jungle concert. My dog went nuts when the dogs were barking.
