Instantly recognized it, the robot heads are pretty distinct. Saw it on the PS5 stream, was so worried it would be an exclusive, phew...

[La Douce Brise]

Yes. I'm happy the game isn't dead.

OMFG I got so hyped when I saw this on the PS5 reveal stream. I instantly recognised it. I was so worried the project had died... Guess someone from Annapurna came across it, liked what they saw, made a publishing deal and asked the dev to go quiet. I've almost got tears in my eyes now man. So happy this is coming out.. AND FOR PC, TOO!!!

Very disappointing. Doubt it's gonna get more than 80 on metacritic.

Well, the name was "HK Project" - kinda obvious it was a WIP title :P "HK" likely referred to Hong Kong, as the game architecture was heavily inspired by Kowloon Walled City.

They later (I think) adopted this name for their development team as well, until they renamed to BlueTwelve https://hk-devblog.com/2017/12/16/meownews/

Oh Hong Kong...ok.

YES! I've had the HK site bookmarked on chrome since 2015 so pumped!!

Oh, thanks, really !
So there was also already an early preview about the kind of gameplay, in this link. Fine.
