Cozy games are becoming more popular because people truly just want to play a video game and relax without any kind of stress coming across them while they enjoy the title. Due to this, creators like PARCO GAMES are allowed to go full-tilt and make unique games that appeal to people on various levels. One such title is what Lidlocks has coming on August 12th with Finding Polka. The game is actually a tribute to the dog one of the developers had, and is meant to invoke life in Japan, while also appealing to people via its “dreamy” visual style. Check out the synopsis and trailer below:

“Friendy enjoys a peaceful life alongside her beloved sausage dog Jazz. On one of their customary strolls through town, the pair spot a chunky Frenchie that looks just like Jazz’s childhood dog, Polka. Before they even realise it, Friendy and Jazz begin chasing after this piece of the past.

Created by Japanese solo developer Shinnosuke Kumazawa, Finding Polka blends slice-of-life storytelling with surreal touches, nostalgic ballpoint-pen illustrations, and an almost canine sense of curiosity. The game is a passionate love-letter to his own late dog, whose spirit lives on in Polka’s paw prints.”

You have to admit that sounds like an adorable adventure to go on, and these game features back that up:

• There’s joy in every step, turning even the smallest detour into a big adventure.
• Get lost in a sprawling landscape hand-drawn in ballpoint pen, packed with hidden secrets and friendly faces.

• Meet an unforgettable cast, from endlessly patient giraffes to permanently peckish cats. Lend them a hand, and you might
  make a friend.
• Expressive animations, charming sounds and heartfelt gestures tell the whole story – no dialogue required.
