History VideoGame / KyleAndLucyWonderworld

At SAGE 2019, a three-stage {{prequel}} mini-game was released, titled ''Sondro Gomez: A Wonderworld Story''. It centers around Sondro Gomez -- a resident of Sunova who longs to leave his homeland to pursue his dream of becoming a musician -- collecting Mystic Orbs in order to pay off his debt to a mysterious being called "The Realtor". Unlike ''Kyle & Lucy'', which is a speed-based platformer in the vein of the classic Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog games, ''Sondro Gomez'' is an action-platformer in the vein of the classic Franchise/{{Castlevania}} games. It can be downloaded for free [[https://store.steampowered.com/app/1391680/Sondro_Gomez_A_Sunova_Story/ here]].

In Sunova, shooting stars are blessed by the ruler of the land, "Queen Theresa", granting the wishes of those [[MakeAWish who wish upon them]]. Stars that are not wished upon fall to the surface, becoming "[[MineralMacGuffin Mystical Orbs]]", gemstones of pure, magical energy. Seeing no alternative, Kyle and Lucy decide to search for Mystical Orbs to wish themselves back home. Unbeknownst to the two young felines, however, is that they are not the only ones searching for Mystical Orbs.

One evening while out stargazing, Kyle Kitcat and Lucy Lovecat stumble upon a [[PortalDoor magical doorway]]. Reaching just a little too far, Kyle and Lucy fall into the portal and find themselves in the [[MagicalLand realm known as Sunova]].

* PortalDoor: Gameplay footage shows that Kyle and Lucy accidentally fall into a magical gateway at the start of the game.

%%* PettingZooPeople: Almost the entire cast is comprised of anthropomorphic animals, including two cats, two foxes, and one ape.

* RedOniBlueOni: An inverted example; Lucy in blue is the more adventure-seeking and less cautious than Kyle in red. It is thus Lucy who first suggests they go to the ruins where they find the portal to the Wonderworld (while Kyle cautiously recalls the legends but disbelieves them), and then reaches too far and ends up falling in, with Kyle attempting to pull her back but failing and tumbling in straight after her. Their in-game expressions also match this behaviour.
* RollingAttack: When moving fast, Kyle and Lucy can crouch down to cover themselves in flames and coast forward on their momentum.

%%* WallCrawl: Demo shows that Kyle and Lucy can sink their claws into walls to climb up them. They can still use their RollingAttack while climbing, as well.

%%* PortalDoor: Kyle and Lucy accidentally fall into a magical gateway at the start of the game.
%%* RedOniBlueOni: An inverted example; Lucy in blue is said to be more adventure-seeking and less cautious than Kyle in red, which can also be seen via their in-game expressions.
%%* RollingAttack: When moving fast, Kyle and Lucy can crouch down to cover themselves in flames and coast forward on their momentum.
%%* SpinAttack: Both Kyle and Lucy's attacks involve spinning: Kyle's vertically, Lucy's horizontally.
%%* TrappedInAnotherWorld: Kyle and Lucy are both trapped in the world known as Sunova.
%%* WallCrawl: Kyle and Lucy can sink their claws into walls to climb up them. They can still use their RollingAttack while climbing, as well.

* WreathedInFlames: Kyle and Lucy have the ability to burst into flames when running at top speed. Doing so will allow them to run through enemies without taking damage, and open alternate pathways.

* DashAttack: In the demo, Kyle's main attack has him burst forward and [[SpinAttack spin vertically]].
* DoubleJump: In the demo, Lucy's main attack gives her an extra boost into the air and has her [[SpinAttack twirl horizontally]].
* {{Expy}}: With their similar character designs (one being a bird-robot and the other being a robot with a large drill in place of a nose) and roles in the demo's story (bumbling minions of another, more prominent villain), Spike and Ballast are a dead ringer for Scratch and Grounder, from ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog''.

** The main collectibles in the demo are the Mystic Orbs, which are awarded for completing a stage's objectives.
** Mystery Pins, which unlock character art, are also scattered around levels in the demo.
* HyperactiveMetabolism: Collecting cherries in the demo will restore health.
* InvincibilityPowerUp: Collecting a power-up in the demo will make Kyle and Lucy immune to harm and glow brightly for about a minute.
* MagicalLand: The opening cutscene in the demo describes Sunova as an ancient world where magical energy literally falls from the sky, in the form of meteorites.
* MakeAWish: Kyle and Lucy's goal in the demo is to use the Mystical Orbs to wish themselves back home.
* MineralMacGuffin: The main objects of interest in the demo are The Mystical Orbs, which are fallen meteorites capable of granting wishes.

When Kyle Kitcat and Lucy Lovecat go out seeking to stargaze an upcoming meteorite shower, the two find themselves stepping right through a [[PortalDoor magical gateway]] and into a [[MagicalLand parallel world called Sunova]]. In this world, shooting stars in the sky are blessed by "Queen Theresa" to grant the wishes of those who [[MakeAWish wish upon the shooting stars]]. The ones that are not wished upon however, fall back to the Earth in the form of [[MineralMacGuffin Mystic Orbs]], which are powerful gems that have raw wishing power. Kyle and Lucy must find the Mystic Orbs to harness enough "wishing power" to send themselves back to the real world. However, no journey is ever easy, and villainous competition lurks in the shadows.
