Hohokum Interview and Gameplay
By Maya Mayfield11th July 2013
Hohokum is a Sony Santa Monica Game Project, coming to Playstation 3, PS Vita and PS4, in 2014.
Hohokum is a joint effort between artist Richard Hogg and Honeyslug, a London-based game studio. It It is a, colourful, whimsical game with an emphasis on playful creativity and exploration. You take on the role of a curious flying snake type character. A techni-colour, worm-like, calligraphic, kite-looking being! The way you move around the world of Hohokum is very expressive.
One of the main focus of Hohokum was to create a game that was geared towards the pressure of hitting an objective, or the fear of failure. The creative team behind the game, found is to be quite an interesting challenge, approaching the creation of the game from that angle, but are excited at the final outcome. There are secrets to discover, trophies to win, but not in the usual way we have come to expect from most video games of today. Hohokum is a fun playground, a place to wander about, and perhaps lose yourself for an hour or two, most-likey three.
