– Players won’t be given much direction
– They’ll find out that something is terribly wrong in this world and will need to save it
– Team doesn’t want to hold players hands
– They created a world simple enough to explore with a compass

– World is devoid of life
– Enemy characters move through specific paths
– Dual analog first-person control scheme
– Will hopefully be out later this year
– Developed alongside Starbeast
