Espoo, FINLAND - 3.21.2013

MeDungeon Games is proud to invite you to Awaken your Inner Ostrich and help it Kick All The Stuff! Ostrich Island is a unique mix of adventure, platforming and RPG gameplay. Explore 11 beautiful islands, search for collectibles, level up and gain new abilities.

Key Features

  1. Lots of collectibles and hidden bonuses: once discovered, collectibles and bonuses can be closely examined in the Nest or used to customize your Ostrich.
  2. Skill Upgrades: At the end of each level the Ostrich gains experience points and upgrades with new skills and abilities.
  3. Custom skins support: Tired of existing skins? Add your own!
  4. Variety of level types: sunny tropical paradises, stormy madness, underground tunnels, underwater craziness and even a procedurally generated in-the-air platformer!
  5. Two difficulty levels: "Relaxing", where you can slowly investigate the islands, searching for collectibles with nothing to worry about, and "Escape", where constantly rising water levels add some excitement but increase score multipliers in return.
  6. Multiplayer coming soon!
  7. Global and country-specific leaderboards across all platforms.
  8. Scores and game progress are saved in the cloud. You can easily start playing on your Windows machine at home and continue on a Mac/Linux computer at the office your friends place.

Ostrich Island is available for Windows, Mac and Linux.

MeDungeon Games is crowdfunding continued development and improvement of the game at http://gamelaunched.com/projects/single/ostrich-island
