From G4tv:
Papo & Yo, the newly announced puzzle-platformer developed by Minority in partnership with Sony's Pub Fund, will be released on the PlayStation Network early next year. The game tells a tale as old as time: a young boy who lives in a magical world of his own creation befriends a red, rhinoceros-looking beast with an addiction to frogs that causes him to break out into fits of rage if satisfied, and embarks on an adventure to cure Monster’s sickness. You know, that old yarn.
Actually, it’s a rather moving little premise, and as you progress through the game, the relationship between Quico and Monster will not only serve as the driving force behind the narrative but it will also factor into the gameplay and game world as well, since Quico’s state of mind affects his surroundings. So when Quico is happy and his pal isn’t in a poison frog-induced rage, the sky will be clear and the sun will be shining brightly, but when there’s danger near, clouds will form and the world will darken.
Developed by Canadian developer Minority, scheduled for a 2012 PSN Release.
