Former id Software designer American McGee, best known for the mind-blowing action-adventure game American McGee's Alice (and worst for attaching his name to the recent Bad Day L.A. political manifesto / gaming disaster), is hard at work on a new project called Grimm (The Grimm Project). Mostly revealed through a series of concept artworks posted on McGee's Flickr page, Grimm looks like it might be another deranged intrusion into the world of fairy tales - such as Pinocchio, Little Red Riding Hood or Three Little Pigs.
When I saw this for the first time my heart almost skipped a beat. As a big fan of McGee's Alice, I'm glad to see that American wasn't discouraged by Bad Day L.A.'s commercial failure and he's back at work. The graphics look absolutely amazing and if it's gonna be as good as Alice was, I'm ready to buy it. There aren't many informations about the game and its content, but the artworks.. oh, you gotta see it.

I do get an idea of where the name is derived. If they could incorperate the style of artwork into the animation with some psuedo-cel-shading method, I reckon it'll look outrageous.

Yeah, fairy tales by Grimm brothers.
Judging from what I've seen by now, it's going to be a pure eyecandy.
