The serene realism of the opening scene quickly takes a turn into the psychedelic, though. The game is best described as a 2D platformer where Francis runs and jumps around environments while riffing. That narrative arc appears to be at the heart of the game design itself, which goes in some truly unexpected directions.
That kicks off a self-discovery story as Francis tries to discover his own rock-and-roll identity, rather than following in someone else’s footsteps. Instead, he walks up to the edge of a cliff, cranks the volume, and starts shredding out a hair metal solo. A button prompt asks players to start plucking out a folk tune, but Francis’ heart isn’t in it. The demo begins with the game’s hero sitting on a bench with an acoustic-electric guitar.
