J'espere qu'il trouveront un éditeur car ils ont l'air de vraiment vouloir faire des jeux pour Big N !

Polish developer NIBRIS recently disclosed to Revolution Report the unique graphical style of its game Sadness(working title), which is exclusively in development for Nintendo's next-generation console, code-named Revolution.

According to the announcement, Sadness will be completely in black and white. "NIBRIS decided to follow Nintendo's path, which definitely fights the stagnation which has occured in video games, and creates new trends. With this move, we want to create a unique environment, which is only available in Sadness," said NIBRIS Staff Member Łukasz Oskard. "But NIBRIS is not following the trend created though Sin City, but rather a game which is set pre-World War."

Sadness is currently without an official title and has a tentative release date of 2007. The game has been described as a gothic-horror title "only for adult players with strong nerves."

A couple weeks ago I brought you guys the news that Nibris would be bringing a black-and-white game called Sadness to the Revolution/Wii. Now we have a statement from Nibris with some new info on what exactly we can expect from this intriguing sounding game, as well as clarification of a few rumors:

* Sadness is not a working title of our game, it is the final title

* The story takes place before World War I that is before 1914 and not as many claim in the thirties of XX century

* The style of the game does not correspond to Sin City movie; it will also not have the style of a comic. It is rather a tribute to pre-World War I cinema and it will have similar atmosphere

* The plot will take place in one of the Slavic countries; we will tell you which one soon

* RotR (Raid over the River for Wii) is not being developed right now. Our priority on the Wii console is Sadness, and only after it is finished RotR will be developed. RotR DS is being refined by a separate team within Nibris

* Concerning the rumours about the possibility to choose the colour version of the game – the making of the concept in the greyscale is completely different. The choice of colour is not because of marketing reasons but the element of making the atmosphere of the game

* Concerning the rumours about a Hollywood film studio offering us a large sum of money for filming rights – the truth is that we were contacted but there have been no agreements. We cannot disclose the topic of our talks however. Still we can assure players that Sadness will not be filmed earlier than 2 years after it is introduced to the market (if it will be filmed)

* We will provide further information about Sadness soon (E3?)

So, a few clarifications, and finally an official confirmation that Raid over the River is in fact being planned for Wii, even if it's not officially in development yet. Sadness is certainly sounding very interesting, and we'll be sure to keep you guys appraised of any more details we get.

While going through Nibris' official site, I noticed that they had some info on the storyline and what to expect for Sadness, which hadn't been there the last time I looked the other day. Here's what they say:

"...In my head there is a voice, different from the others. Whenever it answers it overwhelms the remaining voices, it mixes up thoughts and destroys peace. It tells me that I'm only mixed up in a thought which yearns to prove its own existence. The voice which whispers that I'm not really who I am and the preceived reality is only an abstraction created by my own mind. It is the original voice, which wants to free itself from my head, to free itself from the logic and reason it is being stifled by. The voice of animal endurance at all costs, which forces onto unimaginable things. It is the voice of chaos which is now screaming frightfully in my head for me to take an axe resting against the wall and cut off my father's head."

The study of fear and the borders of human imagination... A trip to the darkest corners of consciousness, in all of us... A trip to the hell of the subconscious and not necessarily to return...

This gothic horror (atmosphere) is not the game of the action. If you're counting on shooting, litres of blood and piles of dead bodis then unfortunately you won't find it here. We are preparing for a mood which will not leave you till the very end of the game. An irregular scenario decides on such issues as schizophrenia or narcolepsy. Apart from an extremely complex and rich-in-the-shocking-factor scenario, the power of our production is innovative use of the Wii controller. Imagine driving away rats with a torch, throwing a rope (as a lasso) when you want to climb over the wall, or slitting the throat of a persecutor with a piece of glass...All of this with the help of the Wii controller. And this is only the beginning... We'll take you on a journey to chich no on has taken you before. The only question is are you ready to experience it?
Attention! Game only for adult players with strong nerves.

This game is sounding better all the time.

Earlier today, Polish developer Nibris provided Revolution Report with screen captures based on its Wii-exclusive gothic-horror title Sadness.

Nibris asked that the purpose of these images not be revealed at this time. However, Revolution Report can confirm that they are not - contrary to recent speculation - screen captures of a Sadness film.

As its developer has stated, Sadness is a game "only for adult players with strong nerves." The gothic-horror title, produced completely in black and white, revolves around a disturbed female named Maria Lengyel and focuses on themes such as schizophrenia or narcolepsy. Nibris plans to utilize the Wii controller in innovative ways that might add to the intense mood of the game. Sadness currently carries a tentative 2007 release date.
