An Xbox 360 version of developer Spiders' upcoming game, Mars, may be planned, but apparently there's currently no work being done on it. Destructoid spoke with Spiders CEO Jehanne Rousseau, who said that the company sorta needs a publisher to fund the project first.
Rousseau explained that the developer is currently shopping for a publisher and will give a "final answer" on an Xbox 360 version when it has a contract in hand -- or lack thereof. Bucking the trend, Spiders is developing Mars for PS3 because it's a "very complicated platform." Hopefully, the extra work will put it in the company of Naughty Dog and Sucker Punch -- and not that of the ill-fated Factor 5 and Free Radical.

never heard of this game,
but what happened?
did they run out of money developing it on the PS3?
if they don't come up with a PC + XBOX 360 version, i doubt they're gonna sell many copies.

It really does look awful though. I think looking at the gameplay that wasting time and money porting over to the 360 would be foolish when clearly the game needs a lot of work. In fact I wouldn't release it at all to be honest
