Since Hyper Light Drifter has received a release for this month, it made me remember Chasm which looks really promising. Now I believe it was supposed to come out last summer, but after that date came and went there hasn't been any noise regarding it.
So what's the status on it?

They posted an update on their KS on the 8th that was about their development process and said April would have a big production update, so probably some news early April.

Not trying to derail but I thought this thread was about a different Chasm. Got excited thinking their might be a remake / sequel coming! Hadn't heard of this one, which looks nice, so here's hoping it turns out well!

Sorry to bring this topic from the dead, but I really hope we hear some update on this soon. Still waiting for Aztez as well.

I remember playing it on a PS4 demo station in the fall of 2014 (alongside LBP3 and Driveclub)... so weird that it's not out yet.
Game seemed good.

Edit: was supposed to come out mid/ fall of 2014 originally it seems

Edit2: last update I see on the Discord Bitkid forum is "2016 for sure, hopefully earlier rather than later".

Click to expand...

They changed their company name and they said they'll be at pax east w/ a playable build.

They're no longer Discord, but bitkid

The last update on their kickstarter was April 7, 2016.
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/discordgames/chasm/posts/1540881

Chasm began pre-production in late 2012, was successfully kickstarted in May 2013 so they could start working on it full time.

A Jan 2015 interview said the game would be out Summer 2015
http://gamingbolt.com/chasm-interview-it-will-definitely-be-a-difficult-game

They've been working on it full time since May 2013, and with games taking at least 1 year to make and often 2-3 years, and the complexity of making a procedurally-generated dungeon and all of the other touches a small indie team has to put in to make a polished product, it seems about right to have the release set back from earlier dates and take about 3 years.

Still hope we hear something soon, last I heard it was supposed to come out Fall 2016, looks more like an 2017 release now.

Interested in the status on this too. Just checked their KS and there's a recent PSX update and the game's supposed to be finished though in a "rough" state from what I've read.

Early 2017 then?
