Summer DB entity ID: 8a38a5e8\-2cfa\-4328\-9b21\-e4c27f801f0d

Steam App ID: 332250

Set in a futuristic Odyssey, "The Next Penelope" is a fast paced action racing game with loud colors, an original story and a challenging risk\-reward system\.    If you've played a MicroMachines game, you'll feel right at home with the controls\! \(An alternative control scheme is available for newcomers as well\.\)    Weapons can be mixed and used at any time, but all these abilities cost vital energy, so the player is very powerful and close to death at the same time\!    As Penelope is looking for Ulysses through the galaxy, the player is free to explore the planets in any order\. Each world features unique situations, races, even bosses, and new permanent abilities to enhance Penelope's spaceship\.    First released as an early access, The Next Penelope has known 6 months of additional development with the help of the community, and has now new features such as local multiplayer \(up to 4 friends on the same keyboard\!\), more solo content, new languages and options \.\.\.
