Bound

Overview

Bound is a platform video game developed by Santa Monica Studio and Plastic and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 4 on August 16, 2016.

The player controls an unnamed princess and ballet dancer as she makes her way through surreal, dreamlike environments. She must complete platforming challenges and has the ability to repel enemies with her dancing.

The game uses an "Edge Guard" to prevent the player from falling off certain platforms. This was because the developer believed that being able to fall off detracted from the game experience by forcing players to pay closer attention to the character's legs than to the world. There are some places where the princess can fall and die, but she will respawn nearby.
