Headlander was recently put out for public consumption by Adult Swim Games and developed by Double Fine. It’s from the same game director, Lee Petty, as my favorite Double Fine game, Stacking. Which you should play if you haven’t because it is amazing.
Oh sorry, I lost my head thinking about Stacking. Headlander looks like a very fine metroidvania-style of game, and I appreciate the 70’s retrofuture aesthetic, along with the head swapping game mechanic which is kind of hilarious and also very clearly related to Stacking’s matryoshka doll swapping mechanic. Which, have you played? It’s really great.
Headlander is out now on Playstation 4, and Windows via Steam for $20 USD.
Stacking has been out forever on Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Windows, macOS, and Linux. It’s $10.
