"Savior" is the first independent videogame created entirely in Cuba. It is an animated 2D platformer that utilizes timing mechanics and other experimental elements more similar to non-games and other less commercial aspects of videogames. The story begins when your protagonist, a "Little God," awakes a strange dream to discover that his world is disappearing. From here begins a frantic search through eight levels, where you try at any cost to find the Creator of the Universe, "The Great God," with the sole purpose of saving your home. But on your way, you very soon discover that you are but an character in an unfinished story, and all the reality around you is only a segment of a colossal game is beginning to collapse. On this idea, that reality is nothing but a fiction, "Savior" creates an experience where the user will be constantly faced with atypical and surprising situations. We wish to give players the most personal and emotional game possible, and every day we’re working hard at the completion of this project. Read less

4/10 C'est beau, oui, quelques combats sympas, mais on se fait tellement chier !!! C'est d'une lenteur sérieux...

3/10 Alors oui c'est joli et y a une vide à la Blasphemous qui est appréciable, mais on m'avait vendu des combats de boss géants et bah non, c'est tellement mou mon dieuuuu on s'ennuie tellement. L'histoire en plus de cela est naze, le gameplay est chiant à mourir, nan c'est nul.

Beware of the divine donkey man.

This is a really good "cinematic platformer" in the line of Limbo and Inside. The handmade graphics and animation look great and the plot is intriguing. A lot of marketing around it is based in the fact that this is the first indie game made in Cuba (I'm sure this can't be true, surely there are several developers in …

This is a really good "cinematic platformer" in the line of Limbo and Inside. The handmade graphics and animation look great and the plot is intriguing. A lot of marketing around it is based in the fact that this is the first indie game made in Cuba (I'm sure this can't be true, surely there are several developers in the country that made games for themselves and their communities, but don't leave the island), but even if that gives a little context to the plot, it doesn't matter, its a great game anyway.

It's really short (about 4 hours), but it has two endings so you'll probably play twice.
