AAA developers go Indie, set to reveal Tiny Brains at PAX East

Spearhead Games, a new independent game development studio founded by former EA, Ubisoft and Eidos team members, have announced their first game, Tiny Brains.

Tiny Brains is a 3D co-op action puzzle game in which up to four players can take the role of tiny (but super-powered) lab animals. Players must work together using complementary physics-based abilities to tackle the tests of a nefarious mad scientist.

“Spearhead is a team of passionate and experienced creators,” said Simon Darveau, co-founder and producer at Spearhead Games and formerly Assassin’s Creed III design director at Ubisoft. “With Tiny Brains, our ambition is to create a super fun and truly cooperative game. So far we are very excited with the results!”

More information about Tiny Brains will be revealed at PAX East in Boston next week. The game will be released later this year as a downloadable title for yet to be confirmed platforms.
