Reset Details; Trailer

The Reset Website offers details on this first-person puzzle co-op game in development at Theory Interactive (thanks Fantaz). This includes the debut trailer showing off the game's proprietary engine, where word is: "Everything you see in the trailer is straight from the in-game engine, no up-ressed textures, geometry or effects. What you see is what you will get. Except hopefully a little bit better since we're not even in alpha yet." Here's a bit on the game: "Reset is a single player co-op first person puzzle game with a strong emphasis on story and atmosphere. The unique game mechanic in Reset is the ability to travel back in time to solve puzzles co-operatively, with yourself."

Let's see if this manages to ever get released... something about this makes me worried that it may happen to have the same fate as Project Offset, being bought out and then scrapped.

Yeah,, pretty much my concern(s) as well. We'll just have to keep our fingers crossed and wait to see what happens......

Way too early to make any solid judgement, of course, but I am liking the concept of it being a story driven FPS-puzzle game.

I wish them all the luck, and if/when it comes to market, I certainly look forward to playing it.

Definitely agree. I think we need more fresh innovative story driven FPS-puzzle games. Especially ones that look as good as this or better.

This engine seems way better than the UE and the new CryEngine at a first glance.

An indie producing an engine of this caliber... guess indies are closing on the AAA gap quicker than I thought.

I wouldn't say better than UE or CryEngine, but it's on that level.

Really, the next leap forward in terms of what can be done visually within budget constraints is procedural generation and re-use of assets... wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the foliage is procedurally generated (but still is quite nice).

Purdy, but will hold judgement until release, and then not really care unless the game is also fun : )

The unique game mechanic in Reset is the ability to travel back in time to solve puzzles co-operatively, with yourself.

This sounds interesting... Though could end up not all that different than say, Raziel's (Kain series) light/dark puzzle dynamic (which is fine, I liked the game(s)).

Very minimalist, very nice.

Let's see a wider scale of environment before we judge how good the engine looks.

Also the trees are only scaling up (with swaying), not fractally growing as I had first thought. Minor detail though. Watching the city become overgrown was really sweet.

I am looking forward to this.
