Looks like a really solid game! Unfortunatly as professional as it looks, its just not my kinda style gameplay-wise so I think I'll have to pass this one up.
I've watched the screenshots and trailers, heard everyone praise the look of the game, but I have to say, I find the sprites ugly as bleh. I have considered the possibility that I'm blind.
But seriously, when I saw the first trailer a while back I thought he was using temp-gfx. But they haven't changed at all!
Maybe I just don't get it.
Anyways I've downloaded it now and will give it a shot.
Well, I've played through the first sector now. It's a really good game imo, loved the presentation and such, the engine works well, the surrounding gfx are nice, but the character sprites still looks like poo. Most animations are nice and smooth, but there are too many obvious copy-paste-rotates in there. Too bad really. Aside from that, great game!
The sprites are meant to be like that, aparently they used rotoscoping(flashback, another world, fade to black etc.. used that technique) and I must say they did was a pretty damn good job.
When looking at the screenshots you immediately think Flashback and Another World, but I just don't think he got it right. I feel things are to choppy and not as fluid and "living" as in Another World. But it's just my onion on the matter.
I like the game, it's quite awesome, and the gfx, but my eyes start to hurt when playing. Dunno why, doesn't happen to me with any other game.
And there s no windowed mode... that sucks big time. since the resolution is small.
