Indie developer, Andrea Cavuoto, director of the award-winning short film Underdog, is excited to announce that SPEAR will launch on January 9th 2025 for Xbox Series X|S.
SPEAR is a fast-paced 2.5D action platform game set in a digital world collapsing under the weight of countless bugs. Players step into the role of Default, a forgotten NPC armed with an improvised spear built from a broom and the mouse cursor. His mission? Defeat the bugs, fix the glitches, and save the project before the developers return from lunch and delete everything. The announcement is accompanied by a brand-new trailer, offering a first look at the abilities Default will unlock while traversing a variety of increasingly corrupted levels.
Featuring precision throws, slow-motion, teleportation, parries, gliding, and more, SPEAR pays homage to the golden age of platformers while enhancing it with a modern, fluid, and surprisingly technical combat system.
Everyone is gone.
Well, almost everyone.
You play as Default, a forgotten NPC armed with a makeshift spear built from a broom and a mouse cursor.
Fight corrupted enemies, uncover hidden secrets, collect pieces of code, and stop the developers from deleting the whole project.
Explore a rich 3D over world, unlock secret challenges, battle twisted mini-bosses, and dive into a world that knows it’s about to be erased.
