Up until now, Contre Jour has been an iOS-only game and a rather popular one at that with Apple even naming it the Game of the Year back in 2011. Back in October of last year we got word that Chillingo would be bringing the game to Android at some point and it looks like that time has finally arrived. Unfortunately we had to wait over a year to get it but better late than never right?
Contre Jour is a game where you will be morphing the landscape in order to get our little hero, Petit, to safety. You will be polling, swiping, and tapping gadgets such as tendrils, air geysers, and pulleys to complete puzzles which will get Petit over to safety and moving you onto the next stage.
Contre Jour Features:
• 5 chapters featuring 100 unique levels, as well as 300 collectable lights, will have you playing for hours and hours.
• Use extremely intuitive controls to change the environment around you.
• 12 different interactive elements to master; portals, slingshots, tentacles, blowers and more.
• Stunning visual style places Contre Jour in a league of it’s own – simply one of the most beautiful games of the year.
• Rich, organic and original soundtrack by David Ari Leon perfectly matches Petit’s journey. Get some headphones and lose yourself in the world of Contre Jour.
• Unlock a variety of achievements as you play, can you find them all?
This particular game is one of those indie titles we tend to enjoy not just because of the gameplay and the loads of content that it comes with, but because it also has a really unique art style to is (think Limbo but with a little color, not much though) and a pretty solid soundtrack to round everything out nicely.
For those of you interested in getting this game and have been waiting this entire time for it to arrive on Android, you can now pick up a copy of Contre Jour for $1.99 right now. You can check out the game in action in the video above.
