Puppeteer Unveiled by Sony's Japan Studio, Delivers a Charming and Twisted Tale
Sony’s Japan Studio has just revealed a brand new game for the PlayStation 3. Puppeteer is a dark and whimsical tale that takes place in a magical theatre and centers around the ”Malificent Moon Bear King”.
The game is a 2D side-scrolling platformer and boasts a gorgeous art style.
Puppeteer: Blending The Best Of East And West
So, is Puppeteer a Japanese game or a Western game?In last week�s behind the scenes Puppeteer interview, we talked to creator Gavin Moore about the origins of the title and got some lovely insight into what makes a great kids game really sing. In the second part of the interview, Gavin touched on the game�s size, its roots in classic platformers of yesteryear and what the development team�s vibrant cultural mix brings to the project.
Read on for more on Sony Japan Studio�s tantalising platformer, and look out for a new update on development next week penned by Gavin himself.
Gavin Moore: It�s really interesting actually. I�ve seen people have arguments in the office about this � �it�s Western�, �no, it�s Japanese� and so on. The Western people tend to say it�s Japanese, and the Japanese people tend to say it�s Western. It�s a game, guys � it doesn�t matter!
But I�d say it�s in the middle. Most of the team are Japanese � probably 95%. But obviously, as the director, the guy in charge, with all that Englishness in me � pushing all that weird stuff into their culture, and grabbing all their culture � which I love � and mixing it up, we�ve made this thing that sits in the middle.
I think it will definitely resonate in the West but I think it will have some die-hard, hardcore fans in Japan who will really get it.
A common criticism levelled at platformers is that they don�t present as much value for money as full 3D adventures. How big is Puppeteer?
Gavin Moore: If you were to run through it, it�s going to take you 15 hours, plus. And that�s charging through it without searching for any of the secret stuff, or finding all the heads.
How many heads to find are there in total?
Gavin Moore: A lot! Pick a three-figured number and go from there.
Do you have a favourite?
Gavin Moore: Hmmm� yes, two actually. I like the Rocket Head and I like the Revolver Head.
You don�t see too many big-budget side-scrolling platformers these days. Why did you decide to go with that genre?
Gavin Moore: It�s an artform that we�ve kind of lost as game creators. I�ve loved them and played them ever since I was a kid. As soon as we made the jump to 3D with PS1, everyone wanted to have characters that ran into the screen. We pushed 2D aside.
If you love gaming you should be trying to get your hands on everything and trying everything. I know people don�t have a lot of money at the minute, but if it�s your hobby you shouldn�t be blinkered � you should try everything. We�ll have a demo out there so you�ll be able to download that and see if it�s something you�ll enjoy.
Which vintage platformers most directly influence the game?
Gavin Moore: Everybody picked up on Dynamite Heddy. Big Mario fan from the beginning � I wasted my life as a kid on those. And I loved 2D side-scrolling shoot �em ups. Do you remember Parodius by Konami? Those weird characters? You could be a surfer on a surfboard firing syringes at can-can girls, and pirate cats and penguin boats, or whatever. That and Dynamite Heddy are kind of what Puppeteer is. Merge those two together and Puppeteer is what you�re going to get, I hope.
Puppeteer pulls PS3's strings September 10 | Joystiq
During a demo at GDC, Sony confirmed that Puppeteer will launch on September 10 for the PS3, simultaneously on Blu-ray disc and as a PSN download. "So that's our release date," art director Gavin Moore concluded after showing me a promotional trailer.
Puppeteer is the story of a boy-turned-wooden-puppet on a quest to vanquish the evil Moon Bear King, played out entirely on a single stage. As players progress from one area to the next, the settings of the stage change in real time.
Pfuu, o sa se indragosteasca nevasta-mea de jocul asta.

Japanese demo :
Imi place conceptul... chiar daca arata asa... kiddie style. Ideea e ca nu vezi 2 secunde acelasi lucru in joc mi se pare sublim. Asta inseamna multa imaginatie si multa munca. De apreciat pentru un asemenea titlu...
Pfuu, o sa se indragosteasca nevasta-mea de jocul asta.
Si sormea la fel
Incercati demo-ul de pe PS+, e extraordinar jocul.
Nu credeam ca o sa vad asa platformer pe o consola care nu e facuta de Nintendo.
Recomand si eu demoul e chiar smecher.
Nu-l gasesc la noi pentru pre-comanda.
Pacat ca se lanseaza asa aproape de GTAV; o sa fie cam ignorat in perioada aceea.
Sa il incercati si in 3D, e într-adevăr o surpriza plăcută
Eu n-am gasit cum sa pornesc 3D-ulOriginally Posted by Dant3
Cand intri in joc si dai start apare automat, cred ca iti detectează automat tv-ul. Mi-au aparut 2 opţiuni, tv 3D sau personal 3D. E superb jocul. Imi place camera mobila, cum e "filmat".

Deh, la unii daca nu e FPS sau "la moda", se da nota mica. Pacat ca se apreciaza din ce in ce mai putin originalitatea si imaginatia.
Incearca sa intri in setarile PS3-ului la display settings/video output settings/hdmi apoi dai automatic si trebuie sa-ti detecteze si modurile 3d ale consolei, setezi si diamentrul tv-ului si esti all set.Eu n-am gasit cum sa pornesc 3D-ul
Dupa asta ar trebuii sa-ti apara setarile 3d in joc si chiar merita incercat acest mod. Spor
