Volvy’s Adventure: Reslimed comes to Steam and lets you transform into a twisted character called Swolvy.
While virtually every other developer and publisher in the world is trying to give Grand Theft Auto 6 as broad as possible, Devolver Digital goes in the other direction. The publisher has long claimed that it would release a game on the same day as Rockstar’s impending colossus, and it has finally revealed more details.
Volvy’s Adventure: Revamped is presented as a remaster of a “new action-platformer” featuring the publisher’s mascot, Volvy. It has a similar art style to developer Doinksoft’s latest game, a fun roguelike platformer called Dark Scrolls.
The trailer shows Volvy smashing levels and enemies with a giant fist, collecting onions and finding secrets. Volvy can transform into a more muscular version of himself called Swolvy, a name I find delicious. All of this serves to find Volvy’s kidnapped friends and stop the wizards who have unleashed slime on the world. There are also mini-games between each level.
There is a plot of games will be released over the next six weeks or so, but the end of the year is currently quite sparse given the GTA6 of all this (perhaps the remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time will be there too). So this could be a decent alternative for PC gamers who don’t want to buy a PS5 or Xbox Series X/S just to play that other game. Volvy’s Adventure: Revamped will be released on Steam on November 19 for $5. There will also be a 25% introductory discount.
