Blade Interactive to self-publish Hydrophobia in March '09

According to a Eurogamer report, Hydrophobia developer Blade Interactive will self-publish its waterlogged, third-person adventure in March 2009. Set aboard a sinking ship, which we're informed is by far the worst kind of ship, Hydrophobia has players solving numerous aquatic puzzles and has bloggers clumsily incorporating unnecessary water words into any articles they write about it.

Should the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 game make a splash next year, the sequel is certain to surface soon after.

i like the concept of a puzzle game like ICO, having you trying to get out of a sinking ship.

coll idea, hopefully they pull it off

I don't know, man. The ship could also be exploding.

Gotta save something for the sequel!

I expect some capsize-induced backtracking, of course.

And I don't know, most of us played Dead Space, "Stranded alone in space with hideous creatures" ship might be worse than just "sinking"

Gah, you beat me to it. Dead Space is certainly up there for worst ship evar.

Man, has the writing staff been reading Xanth novels lately? Too many puns. :P

I hate to burst your bubble, but that's what Ludwig does. And while I can't fathom why you would be upset at this, if it floats his boat, then so be it. Rest assured, though, that the deep cries of anguish over these puns will soon be drowned out by the usual wave of fanboys crying oceans of tears that the version dredged up on the other side of the console river is, compared to their own, all wet.
