When Rani removes the stranglehold of the gunk, you’ll see the ecosystem bounce back, which is extremely satisfying to watch. With it, she can suck in the gunk which not only looks really cool but plays into the key mechanics of transforming the corrupted areas of the world back to their natural state. Our heroine Rani is equipped with her trusty upgradeable prosthetic power-glove, which she affectionately calls Pumpkin. You may find some clues as to what happened here! Maybe the gunk has something to do with it? All your findings are added to a logbook, so when you have a spare moment, we recommend digging in and reading up on the entries. All that’s left is indigenous wildlife and ruins of an ancient civilization that seems to have either left the planet or died out. You can scan the environment to make new discoveries and learn more about the world. The gunk is turning all of these zones barren, but as you remove it you’ll discover the flourishing ecosystem that this world seemingly had before this destructive goo arrived.
The Gunk has a big emphasis on exploration and the world you’ll discover contains different biomes like a rocky canyon region, a dense jungle, deep subterranean caves (we couldn’t help ourselves) and a few more surprises, too. When she and her partner Becks land on a seemingly barren planet, they find the gunk, a previously undiscovered substance that could mean a big payout! The only problem is that the gunk is somehow harming this natural habitat, which brings about a dilemma – should Rani and Becks be interfering with something they don’t fully understand? Will this dangerous discovery cause a rift between two friends? You play as Rani, one part of a space hauling duo who are mining the galaxy for whatever resources they can sell to make ends meet. What we’ve created is a story-driven sci-fi exploration game that really focuses on character development. The Gunk is our first 3D project, so we wanted to use that literal extra dimension to craft a more cinematic and immersive experience than anything we’ve done before. It’s the latest title from the team that brought you the SteamWorld series… us! However, once partnered with Microsoft to develop for the Xbox platform, we decided to go in a very different creative direction from the SteamWorld series.

We’ve made a massive effort to ensure that whatever platform you play on, you will experience our full vision of The Gunk.Īs is to be expected, we’re using Smart Delivery to best support all Xbox platforms. Partnering with Xbox has been incredible, and we wanted to leverage the power of the Xbox ecosystem to its fullest potential. From the outset, our goal was for the gunk to have this mesmerising quality, something you can just sit and watch bubble away for ages, like a lava lamp. On top of that, we added some of our own super cool tech to do things like give the gunk a life of its own. It not only allows us to rapidly prototype and iterate, but it also offers us incredible flexibility and powerful graphics tools that have made the jump from 2D to 3D extremely smooth for the team. The dev team have been toiling away since July last year to get the game ready for prime time.Įarly on, we decided to use Unreal Engine 4 to bring this story to life. Thanks for waiting so patiently for more information on Thunderful’s new title, The Gunk. Originally announced at E3 2020 and scheduled for September 2021, Thunderful has re-introduced The Gunk during Microsoft's Gamescom 2021 stream, now scheduled for Dec. On the other, we’ve got problems of our own and surely this isn’t our fight to begin with. But this also creates a rift between them on one hand, the planet will die if we don’t rid the planet of the gunk. It’s clear that they must fight this gunk to understand what’s happened and to save the dying planet. A slimy parasite - or gunk - covers vast areas and seems to corrupt the otherwise vibrant nature and wildlife. One day they land on a planet that looks dead from a distance, turns out to be unlike any other they’ve set foot on. The Gunk is a game about two friends who run a small scavenging outfit together, and who travel from one space rock to another in search for resources they can harvest and sell.
