Blade Interactive has told Eurogamer that its watery action game Hydrophobia has spilled into March 2009.
The studio will also self-publish the title that we had previously expected in the latter half of this year.
Hydrophobia is a third-person action-adventure game set aboard a ship, and based around water-focused physics puzzles; players can use the liquid to wash away baddies or to clamber up to what appear to be unreachable areas.
As such, the water looks and behaves extremely impressively, drawing on the power of the PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 platforms it's in development for.
We haven't seen the game in action since August 2007, but what we have seen certainly piqued our interest.
Head over to our Hydrophobia gamepage to find out more.

Huhuhu. He said gush.
Intriguing though, I always like to swoon a little over fancy water physics, what can I say? I can be quite fickle. Hopefully the game is fun too though, sounds promising.

I think this has a lot of promise, as the water could make for a very interesting bunch of puzzles (i.e. flooding rooms to lift debris to climb on, etc.) Plus I used to know one of the guys working on it, so I hope it works out for him as he was a good bloke.

I predict a shit game clumsily built around a tech demo showcasing one cool feature : water physics.
Pretty much like Alone In The Dark where the cool feature was fire. You can't design a game back-to-front like that where you develop a cool gadget and try to build a game about it. That's absolute marketing suit BS at its best. |

I sometimes prefer the 'ok, we have a gimmick, now what game do we make' rather than 'lets make an FPS, whats the gimmick going to be' route sometimes its nice to see developers experimenting with new things, but sometimes they can turn out shit when attached to a normal price tag, its almost the realm of budget titles or indie games
