Hunger, a third-person 3D action adventure game with stealth and exploration elements, has been confirmed as a new IP from LittleBigPlanet Vita co-developer Tarsier.
The studio has secured development support from the Nordic Game Program, granting it 67,000 Euro.
The game stars a nine-year old girl named Six who kidnapped from her home and taken to work in The Maw – a surreal underwater resort catering to the whims of the powerful elite. When an unexpected twist of fate offers her a chance at freedom, Six takes a journey through the bizarre and unpredictable world of The Maw, and catches a glimpse at the corrupt heart of modern happiness.
“This is not only a huge vote of confidence from the Nordic Game Program expert group,” said CEO Ola Holmdahl. “The grant enables us to explore an idea we are deeply passionate about. Hunger holds fantastic potential, and our job now is to harness that promise into a great experience.”
The studio hasn’t said what platform or platforms the game is coming to. Back in 2010 Tarsier signed a deal with Sony, but this may well have run its course by now.
