Pitch
Kinetic Panic is a joyful physics-based 3D puzzle platformer where you play as a playful spirit tasked with saving all human creation. Control and manipulate every object around you using abilities granted by the Lords of Physics themselves, to reach new heights and find beacons scattered across a set of wild levels.
Essential Experience
The essential experience for the player that Kinetic Panic attempts to evoke is unlocking new abilities that let them look upon familiar levels with new eyes. Creativity, discovery and experimentation, and being rewarded for going back and exercising that, is vital to the experience.
Game Pillars
Intuitive Controls and Abilities: A whole host of everyday objects within the game can be possessed and moved with ease in a way that makes sense to the player. The abilities will be based off basic laws of physics such as gravity, momentum and friction so they are universally easy to understand.
Bold, Joyful & Eclectic Presentation: The visual style for the game will strike a balance between realistic rendering for objects that can be moved and possessed, as well as a colourful, bold, flat style reminiscent of minimalist vector graphics for everything else. This ensures clear readability in game play as well as a playful and nostalgic style that will charm players for years to come.
Endless Replayability: Players will consistently come back to previous levels after unlocking various abilities to reach new areas and collect energy beacons. Reaching these beacons will help progress the story and unlock more abilities and levels, but the game will also include a time-based leaderboard as an additional post-game incentive.
