Superbrothers returns with another poetic adventure in JETT: THE FAR SHORE

CRUISE CONTROL
It’s been almost ten years since developer Superbrothers released Sword and Sworcery—the story of a warrior exploring a strange, magical realm. It was a quietly dream-like adventure with a strange mysticism suffusing its lightly-sketched world. With the studio’s new game, Jett: The Far Shore, Superbrothers, together with a little help from Pine Scented, has taken that mysticism and applied it to a grand science-fiction adventure, the result being a lofty, sweeping story where the rational goes head-to-head with the spiritual.

It starts off as a familiar sci-fi tale. Humans have messed up the planet, and in desperation to save civilization must now look for a new home amongst the stars. The trope has been done to death, but in Jett it’s different. The humans are not only looking for somewhere to live but have been contacted by ‘the hymnwave’, a divine invitation from a being on an alien planet. Desperate to escape their dying world, a group of space scouts is formed to head out into space and see whether this strange planet—dubbed ‘the far shore’—could become a viable new home for the human race.
