Just to clarify, the game takes place entirely aboard a massive jumbo jet. It is technically an open world game, but on a micro scale, with each crew member being fully realized and interact-able and with the entire plane brought to life in a way never seen before in any game. If something looks interact-able in the game world, it will be.

The art style is not final yet, we are still actively improving it, but we very purposely working to make our game feel very unique and original and completely different from the standard "dark and grungy photo-realism" of so many other games.

To invoke other games, CONSORTIUM could be described as what you might get if Half-Life, Deus Ex and Mass Effect had a baby, but with highly stylized visuals.

WOW! That has been 12 years ago already? Yikes! We must be having too much fun around here at Blue's News. I remember being interested in Amen, and was bummed when I read here at Blue's News that it was canceled.

Well, in regards to the resurrection of the game with CONSORTIUM, I'm not liking the cartoon art style, so I'm no longer excited.

Here is the original Amen: The Awakening

What was that FPS where you were like an angel? Like a LONG time ago...way before painkiller. Not the Shiny one...can't remember what it was called.

Ah, here it is.

Ohh... the Shiny one was soooo good.

I couldn't think of the name on that one either, until you listed it.

Hmmm. 10 bucks isn't that much, and to be honest some of their stuff looks intriguing. However, I have no idea what sort of game they are actually making.

Also, $200K for an open-world game, AND delivery in 6 months time? Neither of those fill me with much confidence that there will be all that much meat to the game...

Requiem? That was a fun game for its time.

Interesting... although the art style from the screenshots look dated and like ass.
