Colorful Disney-Like Platformer Ari Buktu and the Anytime Elevator Announced [IGN]

You play as Ari, on a time-traveling adventure with Professor Lionel Raventhorpe as he seeks out the perfect historical artifact as a gift to the love of his life, history teacher Miss Baron. You’ll visit lots of different places both geographic and chronological – 13 total levels in six different environments, specifically.

Adventure Works was founded by former longtime Disney Imagineer Jeffrey Ashbrook. Wishlist Ari on Steam if you’re interested, and don’t forget to check out the trailer at the top of this page and the first screenshots in the gallery above.

Ryan McCaffrey is IGN’s executive editor of previews and host of both IGN’s weekly Xbox show, Podcast Unlocked, as well as our monthly(-ish) interview show, IGN Unfiltered. He’s a North Jersey guy, so it’s “Taylor ham,” not “pork roll.” Debate it with him on Twitter at @DMC_Ryan.
