Bugs come in all shapes and sizes and boast distinct behaviors and abilities, requiring unique strategies (like pushing them off ledges) to deal with them. Players can also adapt their suit to explore different types of environments and climates, such as cold areas. In addition to story missions, players can engage in exploration-focused side quests and timed challenges. Despite appearing more action-focused\u00a0in style, Flight School Studio describes Stonefly as being a &#8220;chill and tranquil&#8221; adventure game.\u00a0Be sure to check out the cinematic trailer in the header up top as well as the gameplay primer embedded in the story to see the game in action.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>Stonefly looks really neat, and while it wasn\u2019t perfect, I enjoyed Creature in the Well enough to want to keep an eye on this one.
