Announced just yesterday, 1337 & Senri has now given the release date for Leo's Fortune Trophies. Although previously a mobile game, the game was initially designed to be a console game and instead ended up raising the bar for what a mobile game could be. Anders Hejdenberg, a former Battlefield developer, has handcrafted the game, building an engine from the ground up. Rather than using rolling background texture tiles like most platformers, this will have just one huge panoramic image for each level. Unlike its mobile counterpart, the PS4 version of Leo's Fortune will be completely premium, with no F2P elements at all. One thing is for sure, though, the visuals are breathtaking.
We (1337 & Senri) are a small team of three independent game developers from Gothenburg, Sweden. But I haven’t always been indie. Before this I was the lead designer on Battlefield 2 at DICE. The reason I went from AAA blockbusters to making indie games is because I had a desire to make games the way I want to, with the type of creative vision and attention to detail that isn’t possible at a big studio. With each game we make we try to add our innovative spin and personal touch on a genre we love. Leo’s Fortune is our take on the classic platformer.
Leo's Fortune will hit Playstation 4 on September 8th, 2015 in North America, and on September 10th in Europe.
