About the Game

Play as Rene, the Gazelle in a Winter Coat, as he travels away from his cozy home in rural Winder Hill to find his Big Bro. Unlock the memories behind his disappearance, discover the secrets of the “whisper wilds”, and search for answers in ports, caving towns, desert cities, and snowy peaks.


Run, dash, and scooter through a top-down pixel world and get to know a diverse cast of characters. Poke around and discover little stories and moments everywhere, play mini-games rendered in a hand-drawn ink brush style, and use novel items to interact with the world and solve puzzles.
Play through days of Rene’s journey at your own discretion from a dreamy hub world. Bounce between environments and fill in the memories that make life worthwhile. You choose where to dig deep, rewarded in the form of satisfying character bits, beautiful lil moments, and some truly special collectibles.

We’re collaborating with artists to include a diverse array of art, poetry, and music in Gazelle in a Winter Coat. Find these items throughout the world. Collect and revisit them whenever you want.
