God of War developer David Jaffe has revealed his next project, a PS4-exclusive third-person arena shooter called Drawn to Death.

Announced at the PlayStation Experience opening ceremony, Drawn to Death marks Jaffe's first project at his new studio The Bartlet Jones Supernatural Detective Agency.

Drawn to Death's unique concept is that the game takes place entirely within the notebook of a troubled teenager. So the whole thing is mostly monochromatic and resembles scribbles on paper. All the characters are based around conventionally adolescent stereotypes with plenty of demons, skeletons, mohawks, wristbands, dragons, and violent imagery of his classmates that he doesn't feel so fondly of.

It looks a little something like this:

I like the art style, but those animations are craaap.

So now consoles are getting this indie shit too. Good, let them suffer as well.
