A brand-new independent game, Hohokum, has been announced for release in 2014 on PlayStation 4, PS3, and PS Vita.
The game is the result of a collaboration between artist Richard Hogg and London-based development studio Honeyslug. Sony Santa Monica is assuming publishing duties for this is unique take on the gaming experience. In Hohokum, you take the role of a flying, technicolor, serpent-like creature with “expressive” and “kinetic” movements.
“One of the main aims for Hohokum is to create something where the usual pressures of videogames — constantly being told to do things, fearing failure and being challenged to earn progress — were all absent,” said Hogg.
Last year’s Frobisher Says was developed by Honeyslug during a sabbatical from Hohokum production.
This announcement comes alongside a heap of news pertaining to Sony and independent game development. The PlayStation platform is currently courting dozens of indie games while winning the praises of notable developers.
