Dark Energy Digital have just let us know that they’ve made their brand new teaser page for Hydrophobia live – the game is, we’re promised an “action-adventure blockbuster”, so hopes are high.

Indeed, the freshly live site contains a ticking countdown to what’s apparently a “huge announcement” and a “jaw-dropping reveal” of a game that is going to send waves through the industry.

That’s either a pun on the water theme, or this really is going to be something to watch. All we know about Hydrophobia is it’s the first game developed using Dark Energy’s revolutionary HydroEngine.

HydroEngine is “the world’s only full computational fluid dynamics engine”, Edge magazine said that the “yawn provoked by the promise of real fluid dynamics turns into a jaw-drop as torrents boil and sweep around you.”

      • A bad score may lead to a torrent of abuse.


      • Wave goodbye to some more money


      • Hope the story flows well


      • I’m wetting myself with anticipation.


      • I’m ready to dive into this.


      • I hope it’s not a wash out.


      • Lets hope some more information leaks out sooner rather than later.


      • :-D :-D :-D


      • All these jokes were starting to annoy me but then I calmed down. It’s all water under the bridge now.


      • I’d like to know more about the game now but they’ll probably just drip feed infomration to us.


      • I’m just soaking up any news I can on this.


      • I’m just sponging off the other comments really.

      • Have you been working all week on that?
        I thought we’d wrung our hands of it


      • i can’t fathom why anybody wouldn’t be interested in this, it certainly gets me wet.
        .
        .
        too far? :)


  3. Was wondering what happened to this….Always thought it looked good and that was about 2 years ago :-)


  4. i reckon it’s sales will plunge quickly.


  5. Had my eye on this for over 14 months now

    Sadly it then appeared to be going to Xbox exclusive as episodic content, but given that Blade Interactive’s website is no longer active it must have changed hands – hopefully its on the PS3, because a survival game set in a world with fluid graphics this good should be played by as many people as possible.

    suppose we’ll find out during the big reveal


  6. Look at all those water jokes for us to filter through and use in future promotional activities. ;)


    • lol Subtle aren’t they…you don’t want to faucet.

      Okay, so maybe I’m running dry on water puns :D


  7. A proper tsunami of comments


  8. Ha.

    Some of us have actually played Hydrophobia…


  9. hehe plenty of water puns gushing out of the pipework. In 6 days we’ll hopefully be awash with more info


  10. Nice puns.

    I’m more worried about the white horn growing out of his/her head!


    • maybe that’s the stopcock!
