Have had the files for this one sitting around on my hard drive taking up desperately needed space for nearly a month so here we go.

Somerville is an indie 2.5 D platformer by the former CEO of Playdead, who made Limbo. I would refer to it as a narrative platformer, I don't know a sub-genre name.

DEVELOPER: Jumpship
PUBLISHER: Jumpship
Release: Nov 14, 2022

The entire OST composed by Dominique Charpentier is in the background in this video. It is not available on Steam unfortunately and it's not downloadable, either, although it may be on Bandcamp by this point.
