Tecmo spritzes out a Spray announcement

Tecmo has taken a break from hemorrhaging employees to work on a game. Spray is a brand new game to be shown at E3, about a prince who must save his village ... by spraying various liquids on its buildings and streets?

We aren't sure how that makes any damn sense, but according to the press release announcing the game, Prince Ray has control of two "liquid spraying spirits" who enable him to spray enemies and other stuff with "water, oil, goo, and other liquids." The different liquids will have varying effects on enemies, and can be combined in combos with sword attacks.

Spray seems to be a confluence of Wii trends -- it takes the "covering surfaces with stuff" gameplay of De Blob and combines it with the "tiny monarch" character archetype found in Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King, Little King's Story, and MySims Kingdom. But you're a tiny prince, so it's totally different.
