New Steam Game Claims to Be World’s First 5D Platformer

Games like Super Mario Bros. and Sonic the Hedgehog popularized classic 2D platformers. While 3D gaming has become dominant thanks to advances in technology, we still see 2D games released, often from independent developers. It’s unusual, however, to see 2D and 3D elements truly combined. Super Mario Odyssey is a good example of a major game featuring 2D sections within a 3D world, but those moments were short and not central to the gameplay. Screenbound takes a different approach, fully integrating both 2D and 3D styles to create a unique experience it calls ‘5D’.
