Wadjet Eye announces a March 8th release date for Shardlight, which means the adventure game will actually be early, as it was announced for release in the spring. They pave the way for the release by offering a playable demo on the Shardlight website where they have opened up preorders for the game. Here's a recent trailer, and here's word:

Shardlight will release for Windows on March 8th. Pre-order before then and receive a 10% discount plus a slew of extra bonuses. Including:

• Digital soundtrack—three hours of post-apocolyptic tunes composed by Nathaniel Chambers (Primordia)
• Behind-the-scenes video of voiceover recording sessions
• Propaganda concept posters - the Aristocracy is watching you
• Concept character art
• Exclusive desktop wallpaper

All of these goodies are available for FREE during pre-order, and will be delivered by email on or before March 8th. You’ll also get the game as a DRM-free download or a Steam key (your choice).
