The director behind Valiant Hearts, Yoan Fanise, has announced the latest project he is directing which is called Lost In Harmony. It is a musical game in which players must guide the young Kaito and Aya who traverse the world on Kaito’s skateboard. Lost In Harmony’s story is told through its musical score, and Wyclef Jean is on board to provide a track that will be in the game.
Yoan Fanise gave a short statement about his motivations for the game.
“The idea of Lost in Harmony came from my past experience of blending music into storytelling. Magic happens when you see how, without any word, without any language form, you can provoke feelings into a multicultural audience by playing the right melody.
I was frustrated not to find a musical game that brought this level of emotion, with characters you care about, with a story you want to follow, it was more or less always about rhythmic tapping, about squares and circles. By marrying my storytelling experience and the talent of world class composers, there is a chance that this game will touch people’s hearts.”
Lost In Harmony is due for release in 2016, but platforms are yet unknown.
