A random Suda (Silver Case, Killer 7, No More Heroes,etc.) and Swery (Deadly Premoniation, Spy Fiction, D4,etc.) collaboration was braindstormed during a Q&A Panel. Then picked up some heat on twitter. Found a music composer, game publisher, etc. And even a surprise guest producer on the table.
They seem to know each other and be pretty close, reblogging each other's content on twitter and such. In fact I'd say their games have similar flavor, even if pretty different usually. A similar love to grindhouse/popculture/meta takes on typical action and adventure games.

For now they've been calling this project "Hotel Barcelona". And it's going to be a survival horror title, because both haven't made a proper one so far but love the horror genre and have diped in it with some odd titles before (Michigan: Report from Hell, Shadows of the Damned, Extermination..)
Also Jukio
Kallio(@jukiokallio
is interested in making music for "Hotel Barcelona".
It sounds good for me.@suda_51

During the infamous live Q&A panel, they texted other people and got Jukio Kallio for the music of Hotel Barcelona, as well as noneother than Silent Hill/Siren creator Keiichiro Toyama to join them on their indie horror collaborative project!
This is getting pretty epic!
They then got Devolver Digital interested in publishing the game, they're just jokingly waiting to see Swery pitch them the actual game we don't know a thing about so far.
Gonna need @SUDA_51
and @Swery65
to pitch us this mysterious game we’re supposedly publishing.
Name a time and place, gentlemen. https://t.co/duvQWVj1CO

And that's where we are so far.
A collab with the creator of Silent Hill, a composer and publisher to go along.
This horror game has been developed for a while behind the scenes as an indie project. They got a budget set. The project's title might end up the name of the actual game.
Update: Suda51
and Swery are working together on an indie horror title, Hotel
Barcelona
- Budget is $1m
- Published by
Devolver Digital
- Inspired by Siren (Swery also mentioned
David Lynch/Twin Peaks S3)
- Game is supposed to be
"easy to pick up", possibly coming to mobile pic.twitter.com/MwfESarf1i

And I can't wait to see my two favorite game devs make a game together! It's gonna be weird for sure. Fun. And play with the concept of what an horror game is no doubt. (And have some pop culture references and Twin Peaks inspiration, for sure.)
I can't wait to hear more from this epic project!!
