Limbo Teaser Site
The game Limbo is in a perpetual period of waiting. The site gives you no information on the platform, and the release date. What you get is a monochrome site with eight pieces of concept art and a teaser trailer that conveys a deep sense of abandonment. There is no UI, no text onscreen, just a boy and the foreground rendered in silouette, that’s it. Seems kind of empty in phrase, but it’s impressive in practice. The game feels like, Out of This World, Flashback: The Quest for Identity, and Heart of Darkness all wrapped up with a monochrome ribbon.
As of now, Arnt Jensen is the only developer working on this title. He has received a grant from the Danish Government to fund his game. Hopefully he can get a few more developers onboard to complete this impressive title. The concept video shows the potential for this project, there’s so much that can be conveyed through this style of presentation. Let’s hope that one day we can all get stuck in Limbo.

Wow that looks very surreal. A pretty creepy. I must keep a eye out on that site(bookmarked!).
My guess is it’s a PSP title.
I hope it is.
My sweet God in heaven. If this turns out to be another Flashback or Out of This World, I will be so happy. That genre has been so overlooked since the last Oddworld game in like 1998.
oooOOOooo… pretty.
