Insanely Twisted Public Service Announcement

[octantis]

Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet is out, apparently on XBLA! Here's the final trailer for it. Reviews have been mostly positive, with the greatest strength being the art, and the weakest part being linearity and simplicity. They say it plays a bit like Metroid/Castlevania meets Choplifter. If you like the work of Michel Gagne, this is a place to see

Stop being silent you butt.

That's my job.

Nnngh, but it's so easy!

I watch M play the demo of this and it looked really fun. I liked that it wasn't entirely based on shooting shit.

Also INDIE GAME YAY! Even more specifically - SEATTLE INDIE!. If I'd been feeling better at SIX I probably would have tried it. I'm pretty sure they were there.

Oh wow, I had no idea! Cool!

Metroid and Choplifter.
Me, not being a Nintendo person, immediately thought of Oids for the Atari ST, which itself was a cross between Gravitar and Choplifter.

This game is quite beautiful, in a monstrous sort of way.
I'd love to play it but I have a PC and a PS3.
Le sigh...

Well who knows? Maybe it'll port over to PSN.

I was thinking of you recently, actually, when I found a Pepsi Throwback. I tried it. It's pretty good.

Been waiting years to see this in person... and sadly will be waiting years more to play it. Curse the X-box exclusivity!

[octantis]

Doh! Well, an Xbox is just a PC in green plastic... maybe ITSP will be brought to Steam!

I picked it up, I'll share it if I ever get reprieve from the black hole of a city I live in. @_@
