It is pixel art. It's just got lighting effects and filters that some pixel art purists might say disqualifies it from being pixel art, but it's still made the same way using the same skills.
Hey all! Glad you're excited about Eastward! The game is still in development, so no current release date, but we will keep you posted when we know more. We're focusing on the PC & Mac release right now, but console support is still possible :) In the meanwhile, come join us on Discord discord.gg/jbZJxPE & Reddit www.reddit.com/r/eastward/ for updates! - Katy
Chucklefish- you're one of the few developers that I have full trust in. I'm excited for this new game, but just like Starbound I'm sure it will be worth the wait =)
Will you ever fix Starbound endgame? You added and reworked a lot of features, only breaking endgame. At this moment its pretty much non existent. On my power level there are only dull planets to explore and there is pretty much nothing else to do. Did you ever consider enabling some sort of a hardmode after finishing all the story missions? I'd like to run around all planets and be challenged in my travels. Like, something similar to Terraria but with more exploration based structure since you have a much bogger generated world?
Joe Munger They were gonna port it but a lot of switch user went " WHY IS THIS NOT IN SWITCH YET REEEEEE". Dev weren't happy with the way they were being treated because switch port was on a later date, so Dev got fed up and canned the switch port. It was a tiny dev with a solid backer but the early switch community weren't patient enough ruined the experience for the people who bought switch just for the game. The reason why know one backed them was because it was the devs desicion to abandon the port.
This is beyond gorgeous. The World looks so inviting. The last time artwork in a video game had such a pull on me I was a kid playing my Super Nintendo. I never thought I would feel that again. I must have this game.
I’m still coming back to this trailer after 3 years, I remember listening to it on loop the day it came out, I still love the music at 0:54 and I’m kinda sad it didn’t make it into the game or CD soundtrack😭💔 love this game
PixPil, the creators, are base in Shanghai, China. As a big city in China and generally speaking China has been HEAVILY affected by Covid, because the virus came out of China. They are affect by the virus and government regulations, even more so than other countries such as here in the US. I really hope the best to the PixPil team. I can’t wait for Eastward to release as much as the next guy. This is their first game, I think, and it was a great dream of their’s I’m sure. It’s more devastating to them than to us gamers if it won’t be released, as they are the ones who have been working on this game for 8 years. It looks like a timeless classic. Please everyone be patient and respectful with this delayed release.
I honestly cannot wait for this game. Everything about it from the music to the art to the gameplay all looks so wonderful and checks every box for me.
Played it today foe the first time. I had actually been following it for months and it got delayed so long I kinda forgot about it, then found out it came out last September lmao
This game looks incredible, with heartbound graphic style and smooth animation! Some things that needs/needed both the trailer and the game are, in my point of view: -different tones of text sounds (maybe like "Celeste") -Even greater music Thats all, it would be a masterpiece!
Wow! The level of detail in the animations is astounding considering the art style! I'm actually excited for this, and usually I don't get excited for this type of game.
I hear the soundtrack, see the amazing pixel art, the wildhaired girl, the robots, fantastical creatures, flamethrower...all tied up by the fact it's a CHUCKLEFISH game makes me so hype. This looks great!
They're publishers for this, not developers. Which means they can have a few games under their wheelhouse all being worked on at the same time by different development studios. When there's something to show, they'll show it.
this pixel art is *a m a z i n g*
pornographic
Lol its not even a pixel art

Nurpus Yeah!!!
Here after finishing it for the first time. I'm deeply moved. Thank you so much Pixpil, for making one of the most beautiful games I've ever played.
DLC was just announced, is this game really worth it? never played it before, just played stardew valley and I loved it.
It is definitely worth it

Looks like The Last Of Us had a Kid with Earthbound, and i love it
@@gordieallen6422 He never said *when* they had a kid. Maybe it's grown up now?
@@countlessCritters #NotMySenseOfHumor
Yes. I need something to fill the Earthbound hole.
@@evilconcarne444 a nice earthbound remaster?
*throws money violently at screen* WHY. ISN'T. THIS. WORKING.
Because it doesn't support *Devolver Digital Screen Pay*
Looks amazing! Can't wait to play it!

Adding another voice to the crowd:

Isaac Zachary Coming to Switch in 2020 ;)
:)
Put it on Switch please!! 😄😱
MSMPokeGamer / MPG yes please
If I recall the chuckle fish website said they wanted to put their games on switch moving forward. So it most likely will.
+VulcanFaux Omg Yes! Thanks for telling that to me! :D
MSMPokeGamer / MPG no I remember reading that yesterday when I was checking if they had plans to put starbound on switch.
Glad I wasn't the only person thinking this lol.
Everyone with the animation
ITS THE MUSIC, THE MUSIC IS SO GOOD
Wow, it has an Earthbound vibe, it's pretty cool
Jorgehobby was just about to write this. Def has a few moments in the trailer that screamed EARTHBOUND!
Jace Hunter I was just about to write this.
Anyone know what Mother 4's rename is yet?
Nah, the creator's still haven't spoken about it I think.
Jorgehobby omg I was thinking exactly the same! Mother 3 especially!
I’m still coming back to this trailer after 3 years, I remember listening to it on loop the day it came out, I still love the music at 0:54 and I’m kinda sad it didn’t make it into the game or CD soundtrack😭💔 love this game
It would be perfect for Nintendo Switch. It looks absolutely beautiful and amazing.
This seems REAL cute!
It should be coming out in a couple months
Wow...who'd have thought siding with JojaMart would end so poorly? At least there's still sushi...😉
good one lol
THIS LOOKS SO GORGEOUS. AHHH! I love video games.
I hope this comes to the Switch.
I NEED this & Witchbrook on my Switch
Earthbound meets Studio Ghibli!
ssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
meets The Last of Us
Omg YES!!! exactly it!
Meets Secret of Mana gameplay
Hey there's rumors that Mother 4 (Earthbound 4) might come to switch lets hope for an E3 announcement.
This game needed much more hype and marketing. It’s amazing how detailed it is. Some of the best pixelart and animation I’ve seen.
PixPil, the creators, are base in Shanghai, China. As a big city in China and generally speaking China has been HEAVILY affected by Covid, because the virus came out of China.

I think actually they've been working on this for 5 years but still. A lot of hard work had went into this.
I love the whole atmosphere that the game gives off, the music is so lively and the characters all seem so colorful
I honestly cannot wait for this game. Everything about it from the music to the art to the gameplay all looks so wonderful and checks every box for me.
This game looks cute and it gives me that 90s nostalgia vibe.
Is there an updated release date?
@@slimtim1782 Not that I know of just that it's not coming out this year.
Seems real good, i'm gonna download him
@@mashiroshiina4330 it's a great game
@@aletanook u even use a pfp of him, u should like a lot
I only know about this game thanks to the "Indie World" from Nintendo. It does looks gorgeous.
Come on guys let’s get it on the Switch!

I've been keeping my eye on this game for a long long time so I'm glad it is taking huge steps. Can't wait to play it on my Switch :P
Same. Amazing to see such a huge leap forward suddenly.
That clip at the start was probably the most charming part to me, felt like an actual, real life interaction. Just pixel-y.

Wow so beautiful!ChuckleFish is a seal of quality,i love it.
Played it today foe the first time. I had actually been following it for months and it got delayed so long I kinda forgot about it, then found out it came out last September lmao
Sad to see it being delayed so long. At this point the original vision might not be the what actually drops
I got it, I'm playing it now!
It's about time! Been following the progress on twitter for what seems like years now!
0:50 Jeice, Guldo and Ginyu from Dragon Ball Z.
I was incredibly happy she remembered to close the fridge door.

That song... has been stuck in my head for days now.
I love it.
Any idea if they'll port this to SWITCH after it makes katrillions on PC and Mac?
I just finished this game yesterday and all i have to say... WE NEED EASTWARD 2 ASAP!!!!!
Wow! It's on Steam! But we can't buy it yet. I'm waiting... by the way, looks awesome!
The lighting effects in this are amazing, everything just looks so great
wow Eartbound + The last of us, Switch please
This game looks incredible, with heartbound graphic style and smooth animation!
Some things that needs/needed both the trailer and the game are, in my point of view:
-different tones of text sounds (maybe like "Celeste")
-Even greater music
Thats all, it would be a masterpiece!
Okay, that's really cute.
Niklas Sam is adorable
I'm already obsessed with this game. I think everyone can see all the love that went into this project. Thanks for the hard work!
NINTENDO SWITCH PLS !
I keep coming back just to listen to that soundtrack

Wow! The level of detail in the animations is astounding considering the art style! I'm actually excited for this, and usually I don't get excited for this type of game.
2018 coming soon>>>> 2020 coming soon lol
I hear the soundtrack, see the amazing pixel art, the wildhaired girl, the robots, fantastical creatures, flamethrower...all tied up by the fact it's a CHUCKLEFISH game makes me so hype. This looks great!
looks great, any chance for consoles?
Seeing this trailer is just shows how much they done on the game itself visually and gameplay wise
Important question; Is this coming to Steam?
LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS!
1:01 Is this far Cry 3?
тентакли when you burn the drugs
LMAO
Chucklefish never disappoints. Every game they made, it was really fun, and awesome.
Yo where’s Witchbrook at though
They're publishers for this, not developers. Which means they can have a few games under their wheelhouse all being worked on at the same time by different development studios. When there's something to show, they'll show it.

Dread Pirate Roberts Uh, no, the game was fantastic.
Been following the development of this game on Twitter since forever! I cannot wait to finally see this finished product! It looks so good!
OH MY GOODNESS I LITERALLY, AND I MEAN LITERALLY SCREAMED AT THAT BEAUTIFUL ANIMATION
Chucklefish never goes wrong with the art and music, forever amazing
Looks absolutely incredible. Like possibly one of the most beautiful 2D games I have ever seen.
