BlowOut Demo

A BlowOut demo is available, a sample of Terminal Reality's platform action game of a couple of years ago. The demo is likewise not new, it appeared in July, but sat neglected until being discovered by sharp-eyed Frans. The download is available on 3D Gamers.

Gold - Culpa Innata

Momentum AS announces that Culpa Innata is gold, and gearing up for release. They do not have a specific release date at this point, but word is: "I would say we are all having beers, catching some sun at the coast and celebrating, but localizations are now going on for four major market editions of the game. So we are working fast and furious to get Culpa released 'world-wide'."

Penumbra Q&A

The Penumbra Q&A on GameSpot talks with programmer Thomas Grip about Penumbra: Overture, Frictional Games' upcoming first-person horror game based on their tech demo: "The action in Penumbra: Overture is also very different from other games in the same genre. In games like Silent Hill and Resident Evil the main character is often well armed; however, in Penumbra the player is essentially without any weapons. Instead she/he has to rely on their wits and stealth to survive enemy encounters. A big part of the game is to use the environment; this means the player can throw objects at enemies to knock them out, hide in closets, barricade doors, and much more."

Out of the Blue

We attended midday soiree today. I have to say I appreciate someone planning an event for a Sunday afternoon and having the consideration to pick a weekend when the Giants' game is on Monday night. Now that's social grace. Unfortunately, right before our departure, the server crapped out, and something seems to have impeded getting this attended to until now, so apologies for the downtime.
