I'm looking forward to it. I hope the voice actor that did the trailer is doing the narration.

Do we know anything about it? That link wasn't too informative, although I'm a fan of ARP Gs.

It's supposed to be a hack n slash with hand drawn graphics. And the protagonist's name is "the kid".

lol does that remind you of anything?

It sounds like something I'd like, but for what system is it again?

XBLA exclusive huh?

I wonder, to what extent is it feasible for indie devs to make their games multiplatform? There are examples out there but could it possibly become the norm instead of the exception?

I played it at E3. It's cool, but not mindblowing.

It's not. It's on Steam right now.

I just played the demo, and while the presentation is top notch. The controls for PC are so-so. I may be better on a gamepad or with some creative rebinding.

Sorry, I can't hear you from my FLYING METAL BOX!

This month's Game Informer rated it a 9.25 out of 10, making it Game of the Month.

Wish I could afford this game - it looks amazing.
