Bastion is Supergiant Games' first title, playable at PAX
16
When Supergiant Games opened its doors during GDC earlier this year, it revealed it was working on a digital title to be released in 2011. This week, Giant Bomb unveiled that title -- it's called Bastion and should be available for public consumption by next summer.
Supergiant explains Bastion as an "action role-playing game set in a lush imaginative world, in which players must create and fight for civilization's last refuge as a mysterious narrator marks their every move." The "mysterious," somewhat lyrical narrator makes his first appearance in the game's trailer -- which we've dropped after the break. Considering Supergiant's pedigree (ex-EALA Command & Conquer devs) and how beautifully detailed this initial media is, we have high hopes for Bastion.
The game will be playable at PAX Prime this weekend as part of the "PAX 10."

I don't know why, but it's got a bit of that Link To The Past - Dark World vibe to it....
I'm certainly intrigued.

I used to love playing Dofus and this and that look exactly the same, I wonder if the art direction for these games is related somehow because it just looks too similar.

Exactly what I was thinking. The art style and that whole recreation of the world theme.

As of now, it's just an iPhone game I believe. :(
Hopefully it will make its way to PSN.
