Iam8bit Presents and developer Nano Park Studios, a Canadian indie studio founded by pixel artist Brandon James Greer and developer Danny Guo, announced Petal Runner during the Day of the Devs 2024: Summer Game Fest event. This brand-new slice-of-life RPG offers an imaginative virtual life story with visual elements reminiscent of the best from the Game Boy Color era.
Petal Runner is a coming-of-age story set in a cyberpunk-inspired, pixel-art open world. Players will join Cali and Kiri as they explore the sunny city of Sapphire Valley and train to become specialized motorcycle couriers known as Petal Runners. After earning their certification, they will make deliveries, meet new friends, play mini-games, and uncover a heartwarming story about life, growing up, and letting go.
We currently know that Petal Runner will be available for PC via Steam, but there is no release date yet.
"Our design philosophy is to modernize the feel of the retro classics that inspire us, while incorporating mechanics and mini-games that are fresh within the RPG structure. We've been secretly working on this for the past few years; we are putting a lot of ourselves into this project and are excited for people to experience this first major release from our new studio."
said Guo and Greer of Nano Park Studios
