Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet

[Paroxysm]

Oh my. I remember seeing a teaser for this game long ago and then I just forgot all about it. A full trailer has just come out and it's quite wondrous:

Supposedly a XBLA game but some place also have it listed as PC and even iPhone. So who knows where it will end up. As long as it's on a platform I own :P

[Jiminator]

wow, that looks to be a lot of fun...

[Micki!]

Looks really REALLY cool :o

[Boo Boo Juice]

Don't care for the name, but the game looks awesome. Hopefully I get to play it some time.

[Paroxysm]

Yes the name is a bit eh. Like it's trying to hard to be "crazy". But the game looks to make up for any flaw in the title though

[crunchy superman]

Nice. That looks fun!

So many things look fun. The only thing I'd say so far is that it looks fresh and original. I fear that there may be some very frustrating gameplay moments, though.

the video in your OP was taken down.

ITSP trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=975Zw8BJ3Vg)

it looks great, the dark style and the smooth animations make it look awesome. It's like a 2D arcade game in a surreal art form.

Depends on how it's implemented really. Kinda makes me think of Solar Jetman, even though it doesn't appear to be a vector-thrust game.

Also briefly saw a structure in the trailer that looked a LOT like Air Fortress.

Definitely an attempt at modernizing some of the classics.

Yes, of course.. But I'm not very good at most games and that trailer seems to be full of situations that would require really fast thinking and acting which I've only been able to do in UT2004. :D

Damn dead links. I updated opening post to yours link. :)

[Betelgeuse]

hopefully it doesn't get taken down, although there are a lot of trailers getting around on a bunch of other YT accounts, so, easy fix if that happens :)... Unless they all get taken down :o

[Nessus]

I really like the look of that. Old school platformer with a beautful application of modern horsepower. Like a modern version of Scramble or Vanguard.

eh, it all depends on how far back they take you when you die. used to love video games like that (back when they had arcades).

If the learning curve for the game difficulty is thought out well, then by the time you reach those incredibly wild situations, they won't seem as difficult to manage. One thing about older games like this, is many of them required you to find patterns in moving things that to an untrained person would look like utter chaos.

Nice use of Dimmu Borgir. :D

Looks pretty cool. Any word on a release date?
