Damn, been a long time since we've heard anything about this.

I'll have to keep an eye on this one. Could be good.

What? I was expecting this to be on the PS3 since I heard of it!
That's kinda depressing.

It's like Shadow Complex meets Tomb Raider meets Mass Effect.

In other words, it looks like pure awesome. Man, it's been a while since a trailer has left me so excited. I'll be watching out for this one.

"Moreover, the game has been announced as exclusive to Xbox Live Arcade (no word on whether the planned three-episode release will still get a retail counterpart)"
Huh? How can it get a retail release if its exclusive to Xbox Live Arcade?

Very nice looking for a XBLA game. The developers must have devised some some or system to procedurally generate game assets for it to not exceed Microsoft's size limit. That, or the game will only be like ten minutes long...

2 GB, though it's a system/network limitation apparently.

Yeah, XBLA started with a 50MB limit...that's long gone so developers can make games like this and still use XBLA for distribution

Huh, I could've sworn that I read about this game in a 'Russian developers' article in PCGamer. Apparently the developer is British.

Bioshock's water wasn't dynamic, it just had pretty effects. Also this game better come with a sandbox which lets you just play with the fluid physics.

Reminds me of Blue Stinger meets Bioshock released as a SyFy channel exclusive movie. I'll have to see more of the gameplay, but it just doesn't come off as anything other than that to me.

Reminds me a bit of Carrier on the Dreamcast, except not ugly. Looks like my kind of game!

I'm really disappointed they broke this game into three parts and are gonna charge $15-$20 each. That's more than I pay for a retail game. Still looking forward to see if the gameplay is cool.

The water physics look insane..

the first part of the trailer had me thinking, "eh, i'll wait for the review." then the gameplay sequences switched me to "i'm buying this game."

I have a question for the guys over at Pax East. Is this game based on any real fears or phobias from anyone on the Dev Team, and if so how tough for them was it to make this?

To be honest, I don't even care what the plot entails, if there even is a plot. The water physics looks like a huge game changer to me.
