Rootforge Explorer
Read full descriptionHide full description
Rootforge Explorer is a calm, low-poly 3D exploration game. You play as Pebble, a small coral-colored robot with cyan eyes and a teal backpack, on a quiet island with ten relic shards to find. Wander the beach and grassy hills, walk up the ramp to the old lookout tower, hike to the top of the island, and step into a small rocky cave. There are no enemies and nothing to rush. A clock in the corner shows how long your expedition has taken, if you want to know. FEATURES • One hand-built island to explore: beach, palm groves, a lookout tower, a hilltop and a cave • Ten relic shards to find • Walk, run, jump and climb with simple touch controls: a floating stick on the left, drag on the right to look around, plus JUMP, RUN and CAM buttons • Relaxing music: "Stellar Drift" on the menu, "Driftwood Shore" on the island and "Deep Hollow" in the cave • Settings for touch look sensitivity, camera inversion, field of view, graphics quality, music and sound volume • Plays fully offline No ads. No in-app purchases. No account. No data collection. Rootforge Explorer is an early release (version 0.1.0) from Rootforge, a small independent studio.
