Want to know how to make me care about your sci-fi first-person shooter? Tell me that it has dinosaurs and jetpacks in it — and make sure you aren’t lying. That’s the basic selling point ofORION: Prelude, an upcoming Steam, PlayStation Network, and Xbox LIVE Arcade game by indie dev Spiral Game Studios.
Actually, there was one more. This game “pays homage to other game classics such as:Unreal Tournament,Quake CTF, andTribes.” It’s also clearly quite the looker, too. Here’san HD versionof the same video, if you’d rather, uh, be able to actually make out details. Yeah.
Admittedly, I was a little worried that they might be overly focused on makingORION: Preludelook gorgeous, but I’ve more or less only heard good things about it so far. This is almost too good to be true.
