(+) Yeah! (+)

Sony is really throwing support to these unique games from new developers.

With a name like that it'd be kind of amusing if it got cancelled.

"So what have we been doing these last few years? Judging from our blog, mostly we’ve been having team lunches and then posing for photos. Which is partly true. But also we started a company called Giant Sparrow and then signed a deal with Sony to make The Unfinished Swan for PSN."

"For those of you familiar with Sony’s relationship with thatgamecompany, it’s the same kind of thing. Sony calls it an “incubation deal.” In addition to giving us funding they also provide office space, equipment and advice (often in the form of this cheerful graphics programmer from the God of War team). The best part is that we get to focus all of our energies on just making a game."

"That’s great because it turns out that making a game is hard. But it’s almost done and we’re super excited to start talking about it."

"One of the biggest challenges we had was figuring out what the game was going to be about. The idea of painting a white world is pretty abstract. You could make all kinds of different games about that. A lot of people who saw it a few years ago assumed it was going to be a horror game. And it totally could have been. But after splatting stuff for a few months we realized what we liked most about it was the sense of wonder it created. We liked not knowing what was out there."

"So we made a game about creating a sense of wonder. Our goal is to give players strange and beautiful experiences they’ve never had before. We want to give people genuine surprises and then keep on surprising them the whole game. The painting a white world stuff is actually just the first 15 minutes. After that, things get really weird."

That Deadliest Warrior guy left the show to work on this.

Better be good.

Ah, well I'm... glad that's only just the first fifteen minutes because it really comes across to me like more of a cool idea for a minigame than anything. But then, I don't know. Some of the most talented people in history have taken ideas society deemed stagnant as f*** and crafted those ideas into timeless, unforgettable splendor.

...but really, that doesn't sound like it'd entertain me for long.

Yeah, a game like this won't be for everyone. Some will find it boring, or pointless, but it's nice to see it getting support from someone. Datura is another one coming out on PSN that looks interesting.

Ok everyone this is Bartz so just remember.

Sony, very unusually amongst its giant corporate peers, loves to take a punt on weird stuff it likes the look of.

And this is exactly why I always buy Playstation console.
