I'm pleased to be
announcing Oscar, an independently developed title launching this Thursday,
February 26th on Kickstarter. Oscar ships on PC/Mac Fall 2014.
"Through the lens of
a silent narrative, players must unravel Oscar's troubled childhood as her
struggles and coping mechanisms strain perspective between reality and
fantasy."
Oscar is headed by
experienced ex-Relic Entertainment and Blackbird Interactive employees, having
been in development since 2011. The project is aimed at helping establish
interactive media as a platform for addressing and raising awareness of
real-life issues. While titles such as Gone Home have discussed everything from
family dynamics to sexual orientation, Oscar seeks to convey problems children
cannot understand or voice, in a way only video games can.

Cheers
Team Sharkeye
