Unfinished business

Posted by Erin Marcon On Tuesday 8 May 2012ADD COMMENTS

Indie studio Giant Sparrow is teaming with Sony to create a Move compatible PSN exclusive. Already four years into development, The Unfinished Swan is a first person adventure in which you reveal your surrounds by flooding them with paint. While the game appears to consist predominantly of blacks, whites and greys, you’ll also come across the occasional splash of colour, such as the multihued hot air balloon at the announcement trailer’s denouement.

Writing on the PlayStation Blog, Giant Sparrow creative director Ian Dallas revealed that his team is aiming to create “a sense of wonder”. The world of The Unfinished Swan is imbued with all the whimsy of a children’s fairy tale. Is that an ugly duckling? Could that be a frog prince? Perhaps the answers lie in the castle beyond the labyrinth?

A release date is yet to be announced for what looks at this early stage to be an intriguing use of motion controls and a promising addition to Sony’s download service.
