[Game] Depth

No, it is made by the KF DEV guy(s)... get behind them and help Alex make his next success

Doesn't need a quote but I'll do so anyway !

Not my type of game, but it does look interesting.

Really, when watching those videos, I was more interested then watching the BF3/whatever other generic game gameplay videos. Seems unique to me. Playing as a shark and tearing people up can give some fun moments.

Maybe when it gets cheaper I'll look into it.

Thanks to that horrible shark game for the original xbox the idea isn't totally unique.
Alex made KFmod a great team-work inspiring game so I'm confident this shark thing will turn out just as good in this regard. The whole concept is so new that everyone will have to learn the game from scratch. This, coupled with the probably small but dedicated following the game is going to attract is bound to make for a good online experience.
I'm not even into online gaming, but like certain mods for UT2003/4 (RO and KF, first and foremost) this looks like it could lure me online...

 

[Nimsky]

It looks good and it's a pretty unique concept. Looks like fun, definitely something to keep an eye on. Graphics are nice btw!

Those trailers deserve a lot more attention, someone post 'em to Reddit or Digg or something.

Same here. I love it when it looks like something fresh and new has been brought to the table instead of the same-old, same-old. But that makes me a horrible stick in the mud.

If Alex made this, I may have to buy just to show my support.

That said, tracking prey through water disturbances and scent in a 3d world sounds kind of cool.

i wonder if they have a publisher yet :IS2:

 

[PUTZ]

Pretty sure he's self-publishing.

But that's a guess, rather than fact.

 

[Nenjin]

Is he still working with TWI, or did he go back to doing development solo?

 

[PUTZ]

As far as I'm aware, he has no ties with Tripwire.

 

[Nenjin]

Pretty sure he came in house to do KF with them. I kind of just figured that was a permanent hire.

Either way....SHARKIES!!!111

 

[Xienen]

Up until the release of KF, Alex and his team were working with us as "contractors" to help get the game up to shippable standards. They weren't hired on, but we have contracted some of them to help with some of the updates, particularly zYnthetic.

You know what would be awesome?
If Depth was a huge sucess, and Alex built his company up to a nice size, effectively making another good-quality self-publishing game company. I mean, the more companies like that, the better it is for the market, and the gamers, and the indies.

And just imagine if a full-fledge TWI joined with Alexcorp for another game...

Huge. Sucess.

 

[Witzig]

Huge. Sucess.

With beautiful designed PC Games, no console-port Trash. Oh the Joy .

 

[Gregs2k2]

Heya y'all. Alex and his crew of trusty shark hunters have put together a trailer for GDC, check it out:

[Murphy]

I'm constantly torn between giggling at the prospect of treasure hunting divers battling intelligent sharks and freaking out when the sharks get someone. Terrifying and hilarious!

Count me in.

 

[DraKon2k]

lol this is looking awesome, will probably buy

 

[Nenjin]

It's so outrageous, I love it. I nearly crapped myself when it cut to shark view. The teeth showing as a hud is just, I dunno, stupid fun design.

I found myself wishing it was a little slower paced, but I'll still gladly throw money at this one.

 

[[Mad_Murdock]]

Looks like a blast, will have to give it a shot once its out!

 

[Pectus]

Looks fun. I'm not really a fan of the almost cartoonish style though, earlier videos looked better imo.
