Russian indie project is all high-tech and jaggy pixels

Journey to Hammerdaledesigner Winged Doom dropped this teaser for another project,STEALER. Formerly intended to be a, “100% clone ofFlashback,” according toits ModDB page, the title has since changed to become an original game. Winged Doom references block-pushing titleSokobanin the description for the platform game which is also placing a focus on exploration.

The trailer is pretty cool, but I’m not getting much of an impression of how it’s actually going to play from it. Will I be pushing blocks around to gain access to areas or carrying them? Will they be put on buttons or is it just a height thing?

So many questions. Still, I love me some sci-fi sprite art and this stuff looks neat. That much is satisfying enough for now, but I hope future reveals offer a little more gameplay.
