‘to a T’ is a coming-of-age game about a T-posing teenager | Engadget

In to a T, players have to navigate the world as a teenager who can’t lower their arms from an outstretched, T-shaped position. The character, named Teen, traverses an ordinary coastal town alongside their loyal dog, fending off bullies and discovering the strengths of their unique posture along the way. In the game’s reveal trailer, it looks like flying might be the big benefit to T-shaped arms.

The game is an episodic 3D adventure with a rounded, cartoon art style that’ll be familiar to anyone who’s played Katamari Damacy, Wattam or other titles from creator Keita Takahashi. to a T comes from Takahashi’s studio, Uvula, which recently released one of the coolest little games on Playdate, Crankin’s Time Travel Adventure.

There’s no release date or confirmed platforms for to a T, though Uvula began teasing it back in 2022 and it’s being published by Annapurna Interactive. The project is being created in partnership with AbleGamers, a non-profit organization that advocates for people with disabilities in the video game market, leading inclusion efforts in software and hardware development. AbleGamers collaborated with Xbox as it designed the Adaptive Controller, and it provided input to Sony in the creation of the Access controller, the studio’s coming accessibility-focused gamepad.
