There a big difference between Red Steel 2 and Dead Space Extraction:
DSE is a game nobody would want! Rail shooters are fun when they're arcadey, who wants to play a horror game on rails? They're supposed to be fast paced, gunning down enemies continually with the occasional cut scene that acts as a break, a moment to rest.. On the other hand with something that's supposed to be scary and atmospheric, a big part of that is pushing yourself forward (assuming the game manages to be scary to some people). If the game just takes you on a path, that whole element is lost.
Red Steel however is a game where you kick the crap into people with a sword. There's not a narrow audience for something like that. The only drawback with Red Steel 2, is it's connection to Red Steel 1... I personally doubt it will be a dud when it comes to 'quality', ie. polished fun gameplay etc.
A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.
