Solarix Kickstarter (Horror stealth game)

They describe it as a mix of System Shock 2 and Thief, but I think it's also got a healthy dose of Deus Ex and Amnesia in there.

It looks very interesting, and the Kickstarter has a very reasonable goal.

I backed it for £40.

If I remember correctly DavidS on these forums has worked on this games artwork. The thumbnail for the video is a drawing he made atleast.

yeah, I do the promo illustration stuff for them and some small graphic design things here and there when I have the time (actual ingame 2D art is 99% by Adelson Tavares by the way: http://www.adelsontavares.com/blog/ ).

Really nice and ambitious team! Great to see that it makes its round. Check out Eddy Kassabian, who is the composer. Solid stuff I say: https://soundcloud.com/eddykassabian

I`ll also do a small tutorial on an upcoming promo piece during the Kickstarter time, so check back regularly if you like to have a look at some of my working methods for commercial art (which I also utilize for Soma concept and promo art).

At the beginning I thought "what an atmospheric game", but the killing stuff totally ruined the horror feeling and let it seems like a conventional action & shooting game.

Inspired by System Shock 2? I'm ok with that!

There will be a lot of stealth, and a lot less fighting. The enemies will be very dangerous and hard to fight. Essentially, it will be somewhere in between Deus Ex and Penumbra Overture, I would imagine.

What's that?

My two favoritest games ever?

Man I am so behind this

Let's hope this will reach the goal, I mean it's been stuck around 1k quite long time.

Please everyone, spread the word. This needs to get funded.
