    UPDATE OCTOBER 2011!


    In 2009 Bryan and I had a clear vision of Unmarked. The game was about GTA I & II inspired police chases in procedurally generated city environment. Unfortunately Bryan got pretty busy with Geared so it never materialized much further. Unmarked also never had a proper development budget.

    The tongue in mouth story went something like this:


    An expedition to Antarctica makes the find of a century .
    They find a robot hidden under the ice cover.

    There's a man inside the robot who awakens.
    The stranger is captured and locked away in a cage with animals.
    The valuable robot is disassembeld and its parts sent to laboratories around the world for closer inspection.

    In the heat of the night the stranger escapes with the help of an ox
    which is being held in a nearby cage.

    Together they steal a car and escape.


    He wants his robot back!



    This target render is probably the last thing I did on Unmarked, it's dated 25th 11. 2009 so vintage material right here:

    No work has been going on this project for nearly two years, so don't expect it to magically appear on the app store. I already had a chance to try out some of the ideas on Death Rally. (Analog stick driving, the police chase in prologue, comic storytelling etc.)

    I personally consider the project "cancelled" or "frozen" but I really hope Bryan finishes it one day :)

    Or maybe we should do a kickstarter for it to get some funding ;)

    UPDATE OCTOBER 2011!

    Geared is awesome, Minigore is ok. I wonder what this is going to be :confused: One made a puzzle and the other made a survival shooter, how does that work? I guess we'll have to wait and see..

    Can't see the other image.

    Yayayayay.

    @gatorsxrule: That doesn't make any sense. Hardgore was announced a long time ago...

    Anyway, I'm a huge fan of the art you've made for Minigore and the personality it's given the game. I can't wait hear more about this new project!

    Eggzbacon is right, the screenshot doesn't work. I'm playing with the URL and trying to get it to work...

    I hope this game has some sort of storyline or campaign mode.

    Do want

    Sounds great. I love the collaboration and the teaser looks great.

    Edit: I checked the image url and was taken to a page with 5 more images that couldn't be seen. One thing to note is that one has soldier in the name of the file. Might be a clue?

    That recent developers conference seems to have brought out all sorts of freaky developer pairings, it can only be a good thing! :)
