Comprised of talent that have worked on titles like Assassin’s Creed III and Dead Space 3, indie studio Spearhead Games' co-founder Simon Darveau has taken to the PlayStation Blog to unveil their first new project since forming - Tiny Brains.

Exclusive to PlayStation 4, the new title is a co-operative puzzle game that aims to find new ways to interact and challenge your brain. Set in a lab where four super-powered animals have to work together to solve puzzles and escape from a mad scientist’s experiment, Tiny Brains ensures that players can’t get by without talking to each other, pushing that co-operative boundary.

We have a “no design doc” policy at Spearhead. Being able to do this has been one of the best things about going indie, and the philosophy helps us make significant creative developments in a short amount of time. With no design docs, we can think about how to make the best experience at all times. When a designer has a cool idea for a puzzle or level, they just make it, and we all play it together. From there we decide whether the prototype should be incorporated, tweaked, or chucked.

No release date has yet been given for this quite interesting indie title, however Spearhead Games will be at E3 2013 so stay tuned for more information as we get closer to the event. For now you can check out the four characters below plus a glimpse at what looks to be some of the possible levels.
