Introduction: Using an arsenal of special moves like Yooka’s tongue grapple and Laylee’s tactical sonar shot, the buddy duo will explore vast and beautiful game worlds in their effort to thwart corporate creep Capital B and his devious scheme to absorb all of the world’s books… and convert them into pure profit. Players will solve a huge variety of puzzles and platforming challenges in search of Pagies, the golden bounty used to unlock - and expand - new playgrounds, each jammed to the gills with oddball characters and hulking bosses, many of whom communicate via a collage of burp and fart noises. Yooka-Laylee was funded on Kickstarter in June 2015, raising an incredible £2.1 million from more than 80,000 backers. Yooka-Laylee was fully funded in 40 minutes and reached £1,000,000 in less than 24 hours. Yooka-Laylee remains the most funded UK games Kickstarter ever and the second most successful UK Kickstarter campaign outright. |
