Harold Halibut: A Handmade Adventure Game | New Gameplay Today

Harold Halibut has been in development for more than a decade. It has a fascinating and unique style set in a well-realized future where a portion of humanity has relocated to an underwater planet. It's a bit like Interstellar, but if things had gone how they were supposed to. Ahead of the game's release on April 16 (on Game Pass as well as other platforms), Charles Harte and I decided to take a look at an early portion of the game, discuss the developers' intentions for the narrative and gameplay, and detail how the game was made.
For a whole lot more on Harold Halibut, you can read this feature where I interviewed game director Ole Tillmann and art director Onat Hekimoglu: www.gameinformer.com/preview/...

people talk about best graphics as if it's only a technical thing, but personally titles like this and hi-fi rush are going to be timeless because of how amazing their animation and style is.

[@jankfloyd158]

One of the few games i would naybe suggest a lower frame rate just to really make it look like stop motion

[@chasegentry54]

Heck yeah, looks beautiful!!

[@cloudcollector83]

This looks like something Wes Anderson would do if he made games instead of movies

[@Daniel_D-bo]

i bought the game yesterday on Playstation

[@joaquinbaume1291]

looks like my kind of game, pretty sure i'll enjoy this one

[@stevebrown3606]

All I’ve seen so far is Harold running around talking to people. There is going to have to be some kind of action involved for me to want to play this game.

[@fastica]

It's a point and click game. Is not the genre for you.

[@paulmenzie4177]

Not the game for you then it’s a narrative game also not point and click but whatever

[@ytm23ak]

Bro thought this was Fortnite 😂

[@korinoriz]

stevebrown3606 learns there's different types of games. There's thousands of other games out there. No one's forcing you to play this.

[@Andrew52_52]

Woke games are the best 👌🏿. Tired of playing the same old generic stuff

[@DESTY-N7]

[@paulmenzie4177]

Wot didn’t understand any of those words (also pretty sure whatever woke means didn’t mean the same thing 14 years ago😂

[@DESTY-N7]

@@Andrew52_52 🤢ok go play your woke game

[@korinoriz]

What was "woke" about this? The fact a brown person was in it? Grow up.
