Vox Game Studios and SOEDESCO have announced the free closed beta for their title Kaze and the Wild Masks. Fans have a chance to experience this nostalgic pixel-art style platformer from now until April 6 for free via Steam. To gain access, you must go to SOEDESCO’s Gleam page and find yourself a Steam Key.
Players worldwide are already giving feedback as they hop their way through this title. The game is filled with simple and intuitive controls mixed with difficult challenges against iconic bosses. It has a very unique 90’s platformer vibe as it easily sparks memories of Mario and Sonic the Hedgehog.
The Closed Beta of Kaze and the Wild Masks is designed to give VOX Game Studio as much information and feedback as possible for future improvements. They are mainly looking for feedback on the game’s learning curve and overall flow, hoping to mimic the style found in classic platformers.
Players will find the entire first world within the Closed Beta, allowing for a strong introduction without ruining the ending of the game itself. Each level within the world requires more platforming skills than the previous allowing for a slow increase in pace and difficulty within the game.
The story follows the adventures of Kaze as you travel on an epic journey to save your friend Hogo from a curse that has spread over the island. Travel through jungles and skies as you travel on the land of adventure. Although there are core worlds, there are many hidden levels to be discovered along the way.
Players will use the skills of the wild masks to gain the powers of several animals. Tiger, eagle, lizard, and shark all provide unique ways to navigate the world along with their own limitations as you travel through the game. The secrets within the Crystal Island has over 30 levels with 50 bonus levels scattered across the land.
The developers are promising fans a satisfying and smooth platforming experience mixed with the challenges expected from modern development. This is a classic platformer with high-quality pixel art, presenting a beautiful and diverse world.
You can find Kaze and the Wild Masks on Steam right now if you want to try this unique platformer. There is an active Discord community operated by SOEDESCO, where fans come together to share their love of this title and provide feedback. They are looking for feedback from fans, so this is your opportunity to make a major impact on this upcoming title.
