Out of Words – crafting gaming’s most unusual love story from clay and glue

"Out of Words" is a stop-motion adventure game that stands out from the crowd. Unlike most games that task players with saving the world, this one focuses on a simple yet powerful love story, crafted entirely by hand using clay, fabric, and glue. The game's director, Johan Oettinger, has long been fascinated by the idea of creating a stop-motion video game, inspired by the 90s classic "The Neverhood." After years of experience in the film, commercial, and installation art industries, Oettinger has finally realized his dream with "Out of Words." The game's unique, handcrafted aesthetic has even caught the attention of renowned game creator Hideo Kojima, who praised the project as "the biggest praise we could imagine." "Out of Words" promises to offer a refreshingly intimate and emotional experience, inviting players to hold someone's hand and explore a world brought to life through meticulous stop-motion animation.
