Launching next week on the Nintendo Switch eShop is an intriguing little platformer called Alien Escape. A brand new trailer has been shared to show you what it's all about.
The game features a group of partying aliens who have landed on an unknown planet after crashing their UFO. They hope to find help at a nearby castle, but they find themselves imprisoned by its owner and are forced into a life of hard labour. Don't worry, things do get a little brighter thank goodness.
You see, by using some "very advanced technology", one alien going by the name of Timmy manages to manipulate gravity and free himself from this prison. From here, he sets off on an adventure to free his friends from the castle, overcoming fire, water, spikes, portals, and honey, all while using his gravity manipulation skills to rotate the world around him.
The game launches on Switch on 25th June, so that's just one week from today.
Do you like the sound of this one? Will you be giving it a go if the price is right? Let us know in the usual place.

Clever little game. Needs a price before I can make up my mind though.
This looks fun. Like a puzzle version of super (rotten) meat boy.
@Kalmaro Hi there, One of the developers here.
Unfortunately, we have forgotten to talk about the pricetag.
it will be a 4.99$ game. But it will come with a special discount in the first few weeks.
Looks Great! Love puzzle platformers
@mischaal Any chance of a physical???
@Bunkerneath For now, only a digital version is planned. We need to team up with a publisher for a physical version. But we are open for that
looks neat! Might give this a try.
Gotta wonder how much of it there is, and how hard it gets.
Doesn't have to go to Stephen's Sausage Roll levels of difficulty, but it'd be nice with a challenge.
@Pod It starts easy but it will become more and more difficult in over 70 levels. If you need a bigger challenge, you can try to unlock every level with 3 stars. When you collect all of them, a special ingame surprise awaits you at the end of the game.
@mischaal
Sounds dope, breh!
@Bunkerneath for a 5$ game? really?
@mischaal Thanks for the prompt reply! I like that price point
@tr573 What? I like physicals, leave me alone
I don't see how they can make a profit like that
@tr573
Sure, physical releases for cheap digital games have happened or will happen in the future.
Minit costs £8.99, and Downwell costs £2.69, and these are getting physical releases from Special Reserve Games.
In any case I'm looking forward to this game and for a fiver, I reckon I'll pick it up!
