Hello Games' Joe Danger crash lands into his first screens
click to Danger-size Yesterday, Hello Games introduced its new game, Joe Danger, to the world. As promised, we now have screens of the game for you and a few more details as to what we can expect from the upcoming downloadable title. "It's a racing game, but it's secretly a platformer," Hello Games' Sean Murray tells us. He says comparisons have been made to games ranging from Crazy Taxi to Excitebike, though he says "I think we're our own game." Murray says the idea arose when Grant Duncan (another of the four guys working at Hello Games) brought in a box of toys, including an old Evel Knievel. "We just sat and actually played with it, building bigger and bigger ramps, launching it out of windows, down corridors ... we started to build this little character around who this hapless guy was -- the world's most determined stuntman." We should be getting our hands on the game sometime next month, but in the meantime you can peep the screens below.

Hello Games introduces itself and 'Joe Danger'
Opening up an ongoing dev diary and announcing its new game Joe Danger, nascent developer Hello Games has officially entered the gaming industry. Edge recently spoke with the four gents behind the fledgling company and previewed its new game, drawing comparisons to Trials HD and Road Rash in the process (what, no love for Motocross Maniacs?).Aimed at digital distribution channels (specifically: XBLA, PSN and PC), Joe Danger has got a tentative release window of Spring 2010. Hello Games isn't rushing things though, as the game's already been in-development for over a year. It'll be done "as soon as it feels right," says Hello Games' Sean Murray on the first dev diary. With any luck, it'll "feel right" next Spring -- but at very least, we'll have more screens and info for you on Joe Danger tomorrow.
