Has Metronome found a publisher?

The stylish sound-driven adventure Metronome has reared its pretty head again. After appearing in a list of upcoming Xbox 360 releases in Official Xbox Magazine in September, it has most recently been sighted in this month's Official Playstation Magazine in a list of launch or near-launch Playstation 3 titles.

The developers have been out of the limelight since demoing a prototype of the game at E3 to various publishers and a handful of journalists.

Team Tarsier would not confirm the rumors when contacted. However, their reply did end with a suggestive (if widely interpretable) winky face. Are the developers keeping up appearances while their game is still being shopped around, or have they gotten a deal and are now bound by a non-disclosure agreement?

We dropped OPM a note asking why Metronome was included in the list, but received no reply—we don't know if the list was based on speculation or something more substantial.
