Sometimes I get a little blown away by the charm of a trailer, this recently happened with A Fox Tale and if you love platformers you need to take a look.
Honestly, I think it's quite beautiful, magical even with the settings and visuals. Putting you in the paws of a fox, it seems quite unusual too.

Gameplay will have a mix of using the abilities of your four legged friend to spring, jump, dash and climb your way through it to evade capture, solve puzzles and soar across near impossible landscapes.

"Eh, using the third-person plural pronoun to refer to a single person has literally hundreds of years of precedent in English at this point. I mean, we've already had the second-person singular form get taken over by the plural form, what's one more?

Interesting-sounding game, though it feels…incongruous that you're running past bio-hazard-marked containers and jumping through death-traps.
