Boxville – Point & Click Adventure Puzzle Game, With More Than 300 Hours Of Artists’ Time Spent On Every Scene.

I spent several months on finding our unique graphic style.

I have an architectural background, so I wanted to create deep and geometrically correct views. Perspective and realistic lights are fundamental for me. However, I didn’t want to create hyper realistic graphics for Boxville, because it feels cold and synthetic. So, I was searching for the balance between physically correct lightning, architectural sketches’ style and a cartoony look.

Triomatica is Ukrainian-Slovakian game development studio. Boxville is our first game. We released Boxville Demo on Steam and just launched the Kickstarter campaign.

About Boxville

The core idea of the game is that it’s not just a game – but also an animated film that you can watch and play at the same time.

We designed Boxville’s gameplay with the purpose of taking away your anxiety and stress. You can explore and observe the world without rushing and pressure.

The game is full of environmental quests and logical puzzles that we have carefully picked from among hundreds of options.

Story

Boxville is a city of boxes populated with old cans. They live quiet and happy lives with their everyday routines and habits. But one day, unexplained earthquakes disturbed their idyll …

Blue Can (our hero) lost his best friend because of that. He started his search, but it is not so easy to move through the city after earthquakes. He has to find a way to move forward, return his friend to his home – and discover the real reason for all those earthquakes. There are many adventures, new friends and it’s not only friends who are waiting for him on the way …

He has to be curious, inventive, careful, and to help others, to reach his goal.

Characters Design

Characters play a big role in Boxville. Every character has their own personality traits and unique image. However, they are all taken from real humans in the real world. So maybe you’ll recognize yourself or somebody you know is one of them. If not – just wait until we finish the game. There will be many more different characters and you’ll find your favourite one for sure.

Puzzles

Boxville is full of challenging puzzles that make you think and feel happy when you find the right solution.

Animations

We choose an old-style, 2-D animations for Boxville to give it a more hand-made feel.

Every interaction is represented with unique animation and sound. If we put all Boxville’s animations together, we can create a full-length animated film!

Sounds

Every knock, clink and rustle in the game has its own unique sound. Characters don’t speak real language, but they express their emotions very clearly.

Thanks to our sound designer for this!

Music

Our composers created unique tracks for every location, to express its mood.

There are real cardboard boxes and cans used for creating soundtracks.

Languages

There is no real language in Boxville. All characters communicate via drawing on cardboards.

So, everybody from all around the world will understand the story.

    Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some prefer to refer to me as Diane, Deanna, and even Liana sometimes), and I am a Community Post Moderator Lead for Bored Panda. As my position title states, I am one of the people (employed Pandas for bamboo) over here who work with the community side of things on this website to ensure all is well, and while at that, I also help various creators and artists get recognition for the incredible work they do by connecting them to a large worldwide audience. Other than that, outside of work, you can find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making a pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, concerts, and cats (heavy on that, because I am a cat mom).
