News 'Aka' Is A "Small, Open-World" Adventure Game With Wholesome Studio Ghibli Vibes
Are you turning red?
Red pandas are all the rage at the moment, it seems, as developer Cosmic Gatto — a professional animator who has worked with DreamWorks Studio animator — has unveiled Aka, an open-world game where you are looking to find "inner peace". You play as Aka, a retired red panda soldier who has decided to settle on a small island...
About The Game
Find inner peace in a small, open-world game. On these carefully handcrafted islands, you can take a nap on a giant monster, feed baby dragons, take care of the fauna and flora... ...but demons from your past might come back to remind you what you want to forget.
Gardening
The farming system is inspired by permaculture, where associations (garden design) and wild animals play a role.
Construction
It is possible to craft shelter, tools, clothes, or various props. It can help solve quests or just be for a decorative purpose. You will need to gather materials, find objects or win them while doing quests.
Relaxation
Relaxing in hot springs with monkeys, watching clouds while listening to the ocean waves, or taking a nap on a giant Capybara...
Narrative quests
Aka isn't a linear game. Meet various characters of all kinds: villagers willing to help, trapped animals, giant monsters, or ghosts from your past who need your help to be freed.
