Insider Gaming Showcase Participant Hounded Signs Publisher Deal

The Insider Gaming Showcase airs on Thursday, May 28, at 3pm, and already, there is major news to announce for one of the participants.

Imprnt Studios, the developers behind showcase participant Hounded, have reached an agreement with UK publisher Silver Lining Interactive.

“We’re delighted to partner with the exceptional team at IMPRNT STUDIOS on their new game Hounded,” Luke Keighran, Founder and Managing Director at Silver Lining Interactive, said. “The game delivers a compelling emotional story, a rich fantasy world, and a wonderfully vibrant lead character – it is exactly the kind of project we love to champion!”

Imprnt Studios CEO and co-founder Calvin Williams said that at the start of their talks, Silver Lining “understood the emotional core and creative ambitions behind the game.”

Jack Walker, CCO and co-founder of Imprnt Studios, added: “We can’t wait to share more with players during the Insider Gaming Showcase on May 28.”

Hounded is a third-person narrative adventure where you play as a Border Collie named Duke who is on the search for his missing master. As you play, you are guided by scent, instinct, and a mysterious force known as The Tide.

“Navigate a dangerous world filled with secrets, enemies, and unlikely allies in a desperate journey to reunite with the person he loves most,” Imprnt Studios says.

As mentioned, Hounded will be part of the Insider Gaming Showcase, giving players a look at the environment of the game and Duke. You’ll also learn more details on the game in our exclusive sit-down interview with game creator Calvin Williams, airing immediately following the show.
