DIAL IN - Julian Lia
@deltagiac @opalescent_game

A classic platformer where you swap through the many channels of an analogue TV. Jump and weave through corrupting static and colourful frequencies to help a lost Bud-D find his way out.

🔤Dialogue🔡
As teased in our steam page, there will be a story element to Dial-In! A mysterious presence speaks to Bud-D and tries to guide our protagonist through their circumstances!

Here is a look at what we have lined up for it!

@ianhamilton_ We've featured our colourblindness accessibility options previously! Currently they simply override the colour palette of whichever stage you're playing:

👁️Accessibility Features!👁️
Struggling to see the separate channels clearly? Is the static distracting? There are now Accessibility settings to override colour palettes and reduce the static on screen!

#gamedev #madewithunity #indiedev #screenshotsaturday

[Dial-In @opalescent_game]

👁️More Accessibility Features!👁️
After some feedback from a short playtest period, we've added in several new Accessibility features, including the ability to reduce the strength of the TV Filter, and remove the moving background!

⬜️Channel Unity⬜️
Engage all channels! In Dial-In you eventually unlock the ability to turn on all 3 channels! Listen to all three tracks at once and create a safe path through the stage.

Perhaps its best to keep an eye out for traps when unified!

⚪️DISCS⚪️
When you're traversing some particularly warmer channels, its best to watch out for some wayward discs!
These projectiles fire frequently and require a dexterous hand to dodge and avoid!

⚡️Laser Receivers⚡️
Lasers might be dangerous but they can be used to power things with laser receivers! Be careful though, even when powered Lasers pose a very real threat!

Also, take a peek at our final colour palette 👀🎨

🔥Lasers!🔥
One of the hazards Bud-D needs to watch out for on his journey, Lasers act differently to spikes. Lasers will fire a beam across the stage, luckily, with some clever channel swapping or block placement, they can be blocked!

🎨 Channel Combining 🎨
Sometimes it takes a little more than loading a single channel to overcome an obstacle.
By combining channels, you can load two channels simultaneously, getting a new colour and music variant for your efforts!
