See Beneath The Lighthouse, Nitrome's next adorable game, in action for the first time

Squee! Sorry, this is just too cute.

Nitrome has released a trailer for its upcoming action-puzzler Beneath the Lighthouse and, uh, it's adorable. And so colourful too.

As we found out before, you'll be playing a kid who travels to a lighthouse that sits on its own small island in search of his grandpa.

What we see in this new trailer is what that will involve. Simply put, you'll be helping the kid to navigate the series of mechanical wheels beneath the lighthouse.

It looks pretty deadly. There are spikes, plenty of chances to get crushed, and swinging blades to bypass.

By the looks of it, you'll be tilting your phone or tablet to change the direction of gravity. This is how you roll the kid (who laughs in the face of danger!) around the small levels.

Timing will be paramount here. Along with generally being very careful with how much you tilt the world. You don't want to ruin such a cute world with death, do you?

Anyway, that's all for now. Beneath the Lighthouse will be coming to iOS, Android, Apple TV, and browsers soon.
