Human: Fall Flat Team to Make AA Game, New Studio Gets Hypergryph Investment
Summary
Sitara Shefta and Will Dudley, senior members of the team behind Human: Fall Flat, have officially announced the founding of a new independent game studio called Pretty Cool Games. Based in the UK and operating fully remotely, the studio has received funding from the investment division of Shanghai-based Hypergryph. Pretty Cool Games is reportedly working on a new IP, and Hypergryph's investment lead Clare Yang revealed that the studio has already shown her a prototype. The studio positions its first title as an AA, physics-based game following a "gameplay-first" philosophy. No release date has been set, but the team is rapidly developing and iterating on prototypes to test creative ideas, focusing on "player expression" to drive fun and engagement. The untitled project draws inspiration from various sources, including Nintendo's game design principles and Hazelight's cooperative creativity. This investment not only provides financial support to Pretty Cool Games but also marks Hypergryph's continued global expansion into backing creative small and medium-sized teams. For players, it signals that another innovative title emphasizing physics interactions and player freedom may be on the horizon, making it worth keeping an eye on.
