Nospacelost has revealed an official announcement trailer for Kick, a stylish 2D anime side-scrolling platformer covered by IGN South Africa.
Developer Nospacelost has just pulled back the curtain on its upcoming project, giving the gaming community a fresh look at Kick with a brand new official announcement trailer. Originally spotted via IGN South Africa, the footage showcases a striking 2D anime art style paired with high-velocity side-scrolling platforming action. For players who live on fast twitch reflexes and crisp visual design, this title is shaping up to be an intriguing addition to the indie rotation.
While the platformer genre has seen a massive resurgence across PC and console ecosystems, standout entries need more than just nostalgic nods to hold the attention of modern players. Kick leans heavily into a stylized aesthetic that immediately catches the eye, blending fluid animation with precise movement mechanics. It is the kind of title that looks tailor-made for speedrunning communities and creator-led playthroughs once it finally lands in players hands.
We will be keeping a close eye on Nospacelost as development continues, especially to see how the studio plans to balance traditional platforming challenges with modern player expectations. Be sure to check out the original trailer over at IGN South Africa to see the gameplay in action and judge for yourself whether this high energy project deserves a spot on your upcoming watchlist.
