Hello Games, the developer of No Man’s Sky and the upcoming Light No Fire, is entering the realm of games publishing. Specifically, it’s publishing the newest game from Ghost Town Games, best known for its Overcooked series. Called Stage Fright, the new title is a co-op game that can also be played locally and online.
Hello Games informed GamesBeat that Stage Fright is like “Luigi’s Mansion meets Overcooked with a really charming story… From day one, the Overcooked team were passionate about making games everyone can play. And this focus continues with Stage Fright. We’ve play-tested with people who’ve never held a controller, as well as the most hard core gamers.”
Regarding why Hello Games chose to publish the title, they told us, “Hello Games has a bunch of experience we can lend behind the scenes, support we can give, but if we’re honest it really appeals to us to have fun working with a bunch of creative people we just love spending time with. When we played an early version of Stage Fright we got the same buzz as we had with Overcooked all those years ago, it’s just something we wanted to be involved in.”
