Skye Tales gradually introduces its manageable set of controls, never overburdening the player with complex combo requirements. Gameplay is colour-blind friendly and features visual filters to accommodate those with various visual information-processing requirements. Skye Tales also includes multiple control modes for those with different motor-control requirements.
Puny Astronaut Managing Director Cian Roche, shared: “At Puny Astronaut we believe that games should be approachable for everyone; from people who may have never played games before, to those with different gameplay needs. We designed Skye Tales to be an alternative to the many demanding and draining gameplay experiences already available.
There is no wrong way to play Skye Tales - it’s just happy you stopped by. If you want to spend your time simply dashing through dandelions or splashing in the sea, you’re welcome to do so.”
