Sad Clarifications

Polish developer Nibris has clarified a few points on their upcoming Wii game Sadness.

As rumours are rapid on the Internet, Polish developer Nibris has issued out a press release in which many rumours are either debunked or confirmed to be genuine. First of all, Nibris wants the full public to know that 'Sadness' is not the working title of the game, it is the final title.

The story takes place before World War I that is before 1914 and not as many claim in the thirties of XX century. The style of the game do not correspond to the Sin City movie; it will also not have the style of a comic. It is rather a tribute to pre-World War I cinema and it will have similar atmosphere. The plot will take place in one of the Slavic countries; Nibris will soon reveal which one exactly.

Raid over the River is not being developed right now. Nibris' priority on the Wii console is Sadness, only after this title is finished Raid over the River will be developed. Raid over the River DS is being refined by separate team within Nibris.

Concerning the rumours about the possibility to choose the colour version of the game – the making of the concept in the greyscale is completely different. The choice of colour is not because of marketing reasons but the element of making the atmosphere of the game.

Concerning the rumours about the Hollywood film studio offering a large sum of money for filming rights – the truth is that Nibris wase contacted but there have been no agreements. No disclosure on the topic can be done however. If the game will be the base of a movie, and that's a real 'if', Nibris assures players that Sadness will not be filmed earlier than 2 years after it is introduced to the market.
