'Upside-Down Dimensions' Scored By Dragon Quest Composer

Upside-Down Dimensions is a highly visual game that combines action, hack n slash, RPG, stealth, platform and puzzles to create a unique and amazing gameplay experience.

A peaceful and colourful paper world is about to be torn apart. Hordes of evil are preparing to make their last stand, in one final battle to bring ruin to this paper kingdom. All that stands in their way are two heroes, who must embark on an epic journey to defeat evil once and for all.

Play as two characters separated into different dimensions. Flip between these worlds to stop the nefarious Dark Shogun. It is a classic story of good verses evil interlaced with a forbidden love angle.

The game will feature 20 beautifully crafted levels, co-op multiplayer and will make use of all next generation second screen devices.

Hydra Interactive Entertainment announced that renowned video game composer Tsukasa Tawada, most acknowledged for his work on Dragon Quest and the Pokémon series, has pledged his backing to Upside-Down Dimensions and will be responsible for composing the games soundtrack and music.

Following a successful Steam Greenlight crusade, and recognition on its originality and game visuals, the Upside-Down Dimensions Kickstarter is seeking to raise $75,000 to help fund the programming and development of the game.

“We are very honoured to have secured such a talented and experienced composer to work on Upside-Down Dimensions and we are certain Tsukasa Tawada will deliver a fully immersive soundtrack to aid players throughout their journey.” said Daniel Parente, CEO of Hydra Interactive.

“I am thrilled to be part of such a great game and very much look forward to taking the players on a journey of discovery.” said Tsukasa Tawada. “Upside-Down Dimensions is such a beautiful story that it truly deserves a great score.”

Key Features:

  • Multiple Genres – Infused with enchanting puzzles, hack-and-slash combat, and intriguing platform design, Upside-Down Dimensions seamlessly blends multiple gaming genres.
  • Two Alternate Dimensions - Two alternating dimensions, one focused on action and combat, the other on intellectual and cunning where puzzle solving is crucial – a world where the clever will prevail.
