Special features
The overall concept of this game is already very unique. And with the support from the hauntingly gorgeous visual style, Weakless is no doubt a must-try this fall.
But that's not all, as the developer also wants you to experience their viewpoint as realistic as possible. That's why it only allows you to control only one character at any time.
This mechanics is very meaningful, as you can use their heightened sense together to see and hear the world like a normal being. This results in two distinctive perspectives of the two characters. Hence, you'll understand their own hardship, and learn how to make them work with each other effectively.
The soundtrack in Weakless is also very aesthetic with the combination of many unusual instruments. The music matches the atmosphere in the game perfectly, bring you the most relaxing vibes!
Only from the trailer that I can already feel those enjoyable moments. The game's visual looks stunning, and I expect Weakless to be something that stands out from the usual puzzle games trend today.

Weakless will be released on PC via Steam this Fall. The exact date is yet to be announced, but the developer has promised to bring this game to "at least one console".
Maybe they're waiting to see if the game can gather some success before taking further actions. So, why don't we add the game to the Wishlist to make this future happen?
