Evaluation
Pitiri 1977 released on November 7, 2014 as a complete adventure-platformer. Since launch, the developer shipped a handful of patches and a free soundtrack addition. The most recent developer activity was a free soundtrack update on October 27, 2021, which bundled the full game soundtrack and cover art into the game folder. Prior to that, a 10th anniversary post on November 11, 2020 looked back on the game's development history with no mention of future content or updates planned. The last bug fix was in June 2016, and the most substantial post-launch patch was a feature update in June 2015. There are no unreleased DLC entries, no announced future content, no roadmap, and no season pass. The developer has not communicated any plans for additional content. With the last developer communication dating to October 27, 2021 — nearly five years ago as of June 2026 — and no outstanding commitments of any kind, the game is complete as shipped.

About this game
Now isn’t this great…!
It’s my brother’s birthday and this Claw-thing crashes into our house and takes away Sammy! I guess someone has to play hero now…
Pitiri 1977 is an adventure-platformer with much exploration in both world and story, and is paying tribute to its classic pioneers – not only by its gameplay, but also by its background story. A narrative, that is set in 1977 (the glorious year of Star Wars IV, the Atari 2600, the Voyager One spacecraft & Led Zeppelin's “Presence”), in an imposing world, created by using hand-painted graphics, characters, solid physics and a 1970s soundtrack, gradually opened up by the player’s acquired abilities.
You play as a kid with supernatural powers, whose brother has been kidnapped by an unknown evil. On your quest to get your brother back, you venture through a twisted 70s science fiction utopia that lies beyond the known…

Pitiri 1977 is easy to pickup, feels like a familiar platformer with the added excellence of special abilities to progress through each level, and is visually appealing is almost every way – especially the fantastic cutscene. -
