We love a good platformer here at Nintendo Life, so we were delighted to hear about Semblance coming to Switch later this year in an announcement from publisher Good Shepherd Entertainment and South African developer, Nyamakop.
Semblance is a puzzle-platformer where your soft, bouncy character and its soft, bouncy world are almost entirely deformable. An infestation of hard material has started to spread throughout the land. Squish, squash, mold and deform yourself and the environment to solve challenging puzzles, squeeze through tight spots and restore your delicate world back to life!
Semblance pops with gorgeous minimalist art style, atmospheric sound design and an engaging storyline that unravels organically as you explore its world. The game has received special honors for its unique gameplay and aesthetic at multiple gaming shows throughout development.
It all sounds rather lovely. Do you plan to pick up Semblance when it pops up on the Switch eShop later this year?

Is "The End Is Nigh" visual art in public domain already ?
Looks good
@Tibob quite the reSemblance
this is a really cool concept.
This looks really neat.
This went straight to my wishlist. Looks awesome!
What a utter awlful title for a game it should have been called
De-form!
It looks pretty interesting, but it's just a little bit disappointing that it's yet another one of those games where the foreground objects are mostly made up of dark shadows.
@kurtasbestos the real foreground object was you all all along.
@Lord Oh dear, that is a very good title - think it's too late to change it now?
@Tibob lol well seeing as we started development before the End is Nigh, I guess the questions should be reversed
Looks a lot like The Floor is Jelly.
Looks interesting, hope it's a decently ambitious title (in terms of scope)
Looks like a fun game, if the price is right.
looks gorgeous, but kinda seems like other platformers on Switch like Slime San or Celeste (just with a slightly different gimmick) I just don't need another game like it right now
@Lord There is already a game called "Deformers", so yeah, Semblance is fine.
@Whalehome Well, I do. Bring on the play dough platforming!
@onex thanks for fighting the good fight <3
Looks great! Sign me up
Looks good
Going on the wishlist. Absolute must-buy if it is physical. Will wait for a sale if only digital. I'm just selective like that.
