Paul Cuisset, the creator behind the classic Flashback game many years ago, is currently working on new game for the PlayStation Network it has been revealed today. Titled Amy, it's in development by Cuisset's own studio, VectorCell.
The game is set in the year 2034, a future which has seen global warming take effect, spreading disease and causing natural disasters around the world.
When the small town of Silver City (Midwest, USA) is hit by an object from space, all hell breaks loose.
Here's the plot:
When Lana regains consciousness, everything around her is just mayhem. Violent outbursts, fury, rage, wreckage and death: the world she knew seems to have torn to Hell. As if struck by a mysterious virus, most of the ones she knew have now become part of a wild horde.
Despite her wounds, she knows she must run as far as possible to escape this nightmare: the viral process has begun inside her but she refuses to become one of them.
The presence of Amy, a strange little girl who seems defenseless, will force her to make choices that will change both their lives. Infected humans, grisly creatures, Special Forces and even other survivors: they will have to trust and help each other to escape their pursuers in their attempt to survive.
Back in 1992, Flashback released to the world, instantly bringing lead developer Paul Cuisset to fame as Flashback became the best selling game in French history.
