Description
Estimated release date: October 23rd, 2012

Project Giana is a challenging fast-paced platformer with a twist. You can warp Giana’s dream world to transform your abilities and surroundings. Use your skill, speed, brains, and powers to defeat the dangers that populate these twisted dreams!

Cute Giana moves with speed and grace, twirling past hazards and adversaries with a light touch and gentle heart. But, Giana isn’t limited to soft solutions. With a quick morph her punk side comes out to play, full of raw attitude and a powerful dash to crush obstacles that block her way!


Key Features
  • Powerful Abilities: Giana moves through the dream according to her desires and mood. When confronted, she can hammer past or drift on by. You make the call.

  • Intuitive Controls and Smooth Gameplay: Controlling Giana is a breeze, but you’ll eventually need every trick in her arsenal to defeat the cunning trials ahead.

  • Amazing Worlds: Giana’s dreamworlds leap off the screen with gorgeous 3D graphics and the fantastic alterations of the morph!

  • Tons of Cool Interactions: As Giana changes, so does the world around her. Fly with bubblegum, ride conveyer belts, power along with repeaters, hop on springs, and even ride on turtles.

  • Legendary Soundtrack with Chris Hülsbeck and Machinae Supremacy!

  • Explore and Discover: There are 16 rich levels across 3 distinct worlds, each transforming into the two dreamworlds. Giana’s dreams abound with secret locations.

  • Epic Boss Battles: Gigantic creatures from the depths of Giana’s most terrifying nightmares are here to play too. Seriously, these guys are just plain brutal!

Press Quotes
  • RockPaperShotgun:“The results look absolutely beautiful. It’s a puzzle platformer in which you can control not only the main character, but also the mood of the world you’re in”

  • Destructoid: “Full of vibrant colors and accentuated animations, hearkening back to the days of truly inspired sidescrolling platformers.”

  • TotalBiscuit, The Cynical Brit: “The sheer amount of detail and work that went into the graphics do indicate to show you the sheer about of love for this fraaahhh-!”

  • Gamezone: “The controls in particular were very polished leaving gameplay a matter of your personal skill with the engine, unlike some other platformers we’ve seen in recent years.”

  • Colony of Gamers: “Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams, is a beautiful looking platformer that has many of the things you expect, collecting gems, fighting enemies, and avoiding hazards. What is does differently however takes you to a completely different world, literally.”

If not for the fact that Polish distributor suprisiingly was selling it for about 6 euro at the beginning of this year I would buy it on steam as I planned to do when i voted for it... Anyway great game.

Could we expect some glitch fixing if possible? :p

A Destroyable Block killed me when I tried to Dash through it in 3-2 about 3 days ago. Sometimes these Blocks don't even get destroyed by Dashing through them (not just in 3-2).

Also just before I was standing ontop a Stone Frog (the frogs that shoot fireballs) in 2-7, and all of a sudden I die.

It just sucks because these glitches that killed me happened while I was playing Uber Hardcore.

BlueManX, your not completely correct.
The original was developed and released but it was taken of the market shortly after release, since part of it's level layouts where direct copies from Super Mario.
The original copies that where sold before the pullback are rare collector items btw.
