This is my island in the sun
The ultra-charming island adventure title Tchia has surpassed one million sales since its initial release last month — This accomplishment was proudly announced by publisher Kepler Interactive and developer Awaceb just six weeks on from the title’s release on PlayStation and PC platforms.
The sunny funny RPG puts the player in the role of the titular adventurer, who must explore a tropical island while searching for the whereabouts of her missing father. Blessed with the ability of “soul-jumping”, Tchia is able to leap into the bodies of other sentient and inanimate beings, using the speed, agility, and abilities of these creatures and items in order to navigate the world and overcome its obstacles. Tchia is also “armed” with a magical ukelele, which she can use to alter the game world, summoning animals, changing the time of day and weather, and affecting the landscape itself.
With its unique concepts, cartoonish and expressive visuals, and overall wholesome vibe, Tchia won over critics and fans, receiving mostly positive response from both. Already available to purchase in digital form, Maximum Games has announced that it will be releasing a physical edition on PS4 and PS5 on July 18, which should be readily available online and from high street retailers, which will no doubt add to Tchia impressive sales record. It’s a fine success story for a humble and heartfelt release, and the title itself is well worth checking out for a lazy weekend of fun in the sun.
Tchia is available now on PlayStation and PC (via Epic Games Store.)
