Sam Barlow, the director of the highly acclaimed Immortality and Her Story, has recently teased his new work. I’m talking about the mysteriously titled Project Dā–ˆā–ˆā–ˆā–ˆ. That’s not the result of monitor burn-in, but seemingly Barlow’s attempt at captivating fans via some sort of viral detective call-to-action. At first, details seem scarce, but he’s clearly making references to Silent Hill. Let’s dive into what we have:

Right now, we only know that Project D???? will be a survival horror title directed by Sam Barlow and published by Half Mermaid Productions. It’s possibly set in 1983, involves one or more nurses, and it warns players about a nightmare. I know it looks like I’m not saying anything, so feel free to read the official release and see what you can make of it.

“Project Dā–ˆā–ˆā–ˆā–ˆ is a ā–ˆā–ˆā–ˆā–ˆā–ˆ ā–ˆ survival horror ā–ˆā–ˆā–ˆ Sam Barlow ā–ˆā–ˆ Half Mermaid.

It’s all very intentionally vague, but it gets more interesting when you realize Barlow’s tweet also makes mentions of shattered memories. That, along with the previous reference to nurses, can’t help but make fans reminisce about Silent Hill. I get that Barlow could be making a Silent Hill reference to coast on the brand’s rebirth, but he was actually the lead writer and designer of Silent Hill: Origins and Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. Many already know the silly rabbit hole we could fall into, in suspecting a game of being a secret Silent Hill project. If you’re out of the loop, you should totally check out the story of Abandoned, a vaporware game that became popular, then infamous, as its director attempted to sneakily lead the Internet to believe it was a new Silent Hill game.

Is D really a new secret Silent Hill project, is Barlow just flashing his horror credentials, or is he messing with a type of fire he might not be able to put out?

Barlow’s Twitter name also makes reference to a “Project C,” of which he’s yet to reveal any details.
