MoonHood, a brand new studio formed by the creators of Lost in Random, and Fast Travel Games announced a partnership for a uniquely handcrafted video game coming to console, PC, and VR.

This ominous game will plunge players into bizarre realms crafted from tangible materials like real clay, transformed into detailed 3D models.

Founded by Klaus Lyngeled and Olov Redmalm, the minds behind award-winning titles Lost in RandomGhost Giant, and Fe, MoonHood’s distinctive art style and development experience will match Fast Travel Games’ world-class publishing capabilities to create a title full of exploration and danger.

In the game, players will follow a heartwarming yet dark story while diving into innovative gameplay mechanics and facing horrific monsters, traversing a landscape that is as strange as it is beautiful.

“At Fast Travel, we aim to bring unforgettable VR games to the masses, and we're happy to help deliver equally amazing console and PC games as part of that,” said Patrick Liu, Head of Publishing at Fast Travel Games. “By partnering with the talented creatives at MoonHood, we can continue to work toward this goal by creating a surreal game not yet seen on any platform. MoonHood’s team of veteran storytellers and artists have captured fantastical ideas from the imagination and brought them stunningly to life with real clay sculptures, making it a must-play game.”

“Our team at MoonHood is going down a new creative path with our studio’s debut title, using organic mediums and 3D scanning to transport physical art into the digital landscape,” said Klaus Lyngeled, Co-Director at MoonHood. “With Fast Travel Games as our publishing partner, we can ensure our dark, gritty, and poetic adventure will reach players far and wide. Follow us on social media to see some of our character sculptures, and tell us which ones you look forward to seeing most in the game.”
