Flight School Studio, the indie developer behind 2019's Creature in the Well, has unveiled its latest game, Stonefly.
Described as a chill and tranquil mech adventure game, Stonefly has players exploring "an enchanting forest, unravelling a heartwarming story of self-discovery and belonging" along the way. It features a handcrafted art style inspired by mid-century modern design and nature, and tells a coming-of-age story about Annika, an inventor who's on a quest to recover a lost family heirloom.
"Stonefly is an exciting next step for our small development team," says Bohdon Sayre, Game Director at Flight School Studio. "We've designed a game that mirrors Annika’s journey to find her confidence, as an inventor braving the unfamiliar notions of the world."
The game's launching on Switch and other platforms this summer, so make sure to keep an eye out for it appearing on the eShop in the coming months.

Daaaang! This is ART!
It's weird, spacey, cute, trippy, GORGEOUS!
Looks intriguing.
Love the mix of mecha with a unique setting and art-style.
If it reviews well, I'm in.
Very nice, looks like a more arty and actiony version of Pikmin.
Except for… I can't really put my finger on it but the design of the main character is somehow weirdly off putting.
Pikmin+Evangelion
Creature in the Well was a flawed indie gem, well worth your time for the right price (but it may not hold your attention through to the end).
This one has my attention!
Wow, this looks really good
Gotta say this is one of the coolest games I've seen in awhile.
I really dug the look, atmosphere and lore of Creature in the Well, but I couldn't get on with the gameplay at all. I'm horrible with that kind of bat-swinging action, banking shots and the like (yes, I'm also the world's worst pool and snooker player, and you do NOT want me on your baseball team). To this day I haven't played more than a couple of hours of it, with basically zero progress in the game.
So, this is intriguing, but I'll have to look into the actual gameplay before I get too excited about it.
