Sadness - Sacred Jellybean - 1st May 2006
I ran a search for "Sadness" and didn't find anything, so I'm assuming no one here knows about this yet. I just found out about it myself 10 minutes ago.

Quote:Today came news of a second Revolution game that is definitely not for kids. Polish developer Nibris has announced that it is developing Sadness, a film noir-inspired game for the next-generation platform.
The studio, who is so obscure it has the words "Yes, we do exist" on its Web site, was stingy with details. It didn't name a publisher, fix a release date, or identify a specific genre. It did, however, crow about how Sadness will be the first game with all black-and-white graphics, citing the recent crime thriller Sin City as an inspiration. It also said the game would be set "pre-World War," giving it the same 1930s setting as many classic crime films.
In a somewhat garbled statement, "Nibris employee" Lukasz "CassSept" Oskard praised the vision of Nintendo, which his company will develop for exclusively. "Nibris decided to follow Nintendo's path, which definately (sic) fights the stagnation which has occurred in video games and creates new trends," he said. "With thise (sic) move, we want to create a unique environment, which is only available in Sadness."
Inspired by Sin City? Black-and-white noir graphics? Exclusive development for Nintendo? The?

Hopefully they'll eventually get a publisher.

They dont have a publisher!? that's like developing a game when you dont have a publisher! MADNESS.
Actually this is an independent studio making two games for Wii: Sadness and Raid Over the River, the latter being a time-traveling futuristic shooter where you pilot a ship third person. It's been pretty much confirmed that Nintendo will be publishing the titles though i heard there's also talks with Ubisoft, EA and the like.
Sadness used to have a different title, but this is the game that talked about using a torch to scare away rats while exploring sewers, or throwing a grapple over a wall to climb it all through the wiimote. it also has some amazing visuals promised from these stills taken from their upcoming E3 presentation video. yes, that is a real woman holding a wiimote, the other pic looks like real time from the game.

Ahh, so this HAS already been brought to the table.
God damn it, NIBRIS, get a publisher.

Nintendo's really been talking up the whole concept of giving developers the money if they provide the ideas. This would be a great place for them to start.
