Tequila Works announced in January that their first game, Deadlight, would be an Xbox Live Arcade exclusive. Today publisher Microsoft released a bit more information about the post-apocalyptic title's gameplay.
In Deadlight, players take on the role of Randall Wayne. He's one of the few survivors of a mysterious disease that has turned most of mankind into mindless zombies. Wayne sets out on a dangerous journey along the west coast of America.
Deadlight is a puzzle platformer. While you can resort to violence, it's not the best approach. You'll mostly want to avoid zombies altogether, along with any other hazards you encounter. You can also set traps to fend off enemies.
The graphics are interesting. You'd think the screenshots were actually concept art. The environments look hand painted, while the characters are black silhouettes.
Look for Deadlight to arrive this summer.
