Metalocalypse creators open game studio, announce first title


Titmouse Inc., creators of Metalocalypse, today announced that it is opening a brand new game studio. The studio, appropriately named Titmouse Games, is already working on its first project. Titmouse Inc. executive producers Chris and Shannon Prynoski will serve as president and vice president of the studio, respectively. Aaron Habibipour, whose resume includes work on the Guitar Hero series, Darkwatch and GUN, will serve as creative director.

The studio's debut project is a console action RPG titled Seven Haunted Seas. It's billed as "a dark comedic tale about an undead pirate, Scurvy Pete, that returns from hell to find a dark, post-apocalyptic future where he must right all his wrongs to restore the world." Wait a minute. A pirate -- who is also a zombie -- fighting to save the world in a post-apocalyptic future? Looks like Brütal Legend has some competition for best plot ever. Watch the trailer here.
