Skylar and Plux Release Window Announced, New Gameplay Revealed Ahead of E3

2016 at E3 was a very good year for fans of platformers. We've got Yooka-Laylee showing more of it's stuff, Cuphead finally coming soon, and the remaster of Crash Bandicoot. Also shown prominently at the show was Skylar & Plux: Adventure On Clover Island, a mascot duo platformer which takes heavy amounts of inspiration from the classics of a few console generations ago. We've featured the game previously here on GameGrin, including an interview with the developers.

The new trailer, showing the level which will be demonstrated at the upcoming conference, gives us a taste of what to expect from the game when it launches in January 2017. The gameplay walkthrough shows never-before-seen level “Oasis”, as well as a new time-manipulating gadget, that will let the players slow-down time and create time-bubbles to change the environment around them.
