Tamarin

Tamarin is a 3D platformer in which the player takes control of a tamarin who is trying to rescue his kidnapped tribe and restore an artifact that is critical for the world's survival.

After their peaceful forest home is ravaged by the mechanized insect race known as the Drovaxians and much of their tribe is kidnapped, the protagonist encounters a piece of an artifact known as the Crystal of Eternity. To prevent a catastrophe, our hero sets off in search of the four Elemental Shrines—Earth, Water, Fire and Air—to harness their power to restore the crystal's power and bring harmony and balance back to the world.

Developed by a team with several veteran staff from Rare Limited and featuring a soundtrack from David Wise, Tamarin aims to provide an experience similar to many of Rare's iconic platformers from the past. The world has several large, open environments to traverse, with a colourful and cartoony art style, mixed in with metallic, harsher looking levels in enemy facilities. The player has a number of different moves and abilities to get around, with additional ones becoming unlocked as more Elemental Shrines are found. There is also combat, though it is minimal and not the game's primary focus.
