Wow, that game looks really, really good.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

i've been waiting for this game for years, it was a PC only game at once.



I live for the burn...and the sting of pleasure...
I live for the sword, the steel, and the gun...

It's kind of like a desperate dream. I hope this game isn't too depressing. The gameplay looks fun, but it needs to have interesting puzzles, because I can already tell the platforming won't be enough. It will need gimmicks outside of its great graphics and atmosphere if it wants to reach Braid levels, but that said, it very well could.

What other games has that developer created? Who works for them?

PlayDead studios, can't find a wiki article on them, independant danish developer!

Already won 2 awards for this game

That looks sensational! I've never seen anything quite like it before!

I'm glad this is getting good feedback! Hopefully it can get the recognition it (looks) to deserve when it comes out!)

I have to agree with everyone else, the atmosphere and art style are off the hook. You guys should check out youtube, there are a few gameplay videos there. When is this coming out?



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.
