00:00Hi everyone, we are Brainlight Games, former developers at Piranha Bytes on Gothic, Rhythm and Elix.
00:06Today we're thrilled to introduce you to our new game, Rootbound.
00:09Rootbound is a game about exploration, adventure and physical puzzle solving.
00:14You take on the role of a lone traveler on a journey to the heart of the world,
00:18searching for a lost expedition. While having your sentient backpack equipped,
00:22you solve physics-based puzzles, uncover hidden lore and gradually piece together what went wrong.
00:30When night falls, Rootbound becomes dangerous. Light sources give you the chance to rest,
00:39but the danger always looms as long as it is night. But on this journey, you are not alone.
00:46Meet Peggy, your sentient backpack. She is quite the personality. She will happily eat items she enjoys,
00:53but if you feed her things that she despises, she will quickly spit them out.
00:58She is more than just storage.
01:09In Rootbound, players aren't guided down a set path.
01:13Instead, we give you tools and let you decide how to face each challenge.
01:17The world follows consistent rules. If something's light enough,
01:20you can carry it, store it or use it as a weapon.
01:32There is no fast travel, no map, just your memory and the trail you leave behind.
01:37Thanks for checking out Rootbound. And don't forget to wishlist us on Steam and follow us online.
01:48And as a final announcement, we're thrilled to say that you'll be able to play our demo
01:52at Gamescom at the home of Indies.
01:55We can't wait for you to explore the world we have built. Until then, stay curious.
02:00We'll see you next time.
