Stop-motion-style space adventure Harold Halibut looks sublime in new story trailer
Developer Slow Bros’ “handmade” space adventure Harold Halibut has given its handcrafted sets and claymation-style characters another gorgeous airing in a brand-new story trailer.
Harold Halibut is part stop-motion movie, part narrative-driven adventure, and tells the story of the titular Harold – a young lab assistant forced to live his life onboard on a city sized spaceship submerged beneath an alien ocean, 250 years after it fled Earth to preserve the human race.
“While most of the ship’s inhabitants have reconciled themselves to a life lived aboard the sunken ship,” explains Slow Bros, “[lead scientist Jeanne Mareaux] still works tirelessly to find a way for the ship to leave the planet and find a new, dryer home.
“But of course the weird, wonderful and diverse people of the Fedora keep Harold busy too. Until one fateful encounter plunges Harold into a new world that nobody could have guessed existed – and one that may hold the key to Mareaux’s re-launch plans.”
