Saw this trailer and thought it was worth posting.

Trailer

Developed by SMAC games and published by Mode7 of Frozen Synapse fame. Can't find much info on the devs as googling SMAC Games makes google think I want info on Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri.

Coming in 2017

TVexperto · Mar 30, 2016

Kinda reminds me of monument valley

Gorgeous art, will see how it plays.

SJRB · Mar 30, 2016

Sheesh, that artstyle is amazing.

Love the artstyle! Will definitely follow!

KKRT00 · Mar 30, 2016

Very interesting looking game. Syndicate in the tile really helped in bringing my attention

ThePeoplesBureau · Mar 30, 2016

Definite Syndicate vibes.

AusRoachman · Mar 30, 2016

Love the art style and the setting . Can't wait to see more .

DrWong · Mar 30, 2016

Nice!

That looks very good, looking forward to it.

septicore · Mar 30, 2016

This game looks amazing.

I want it so bad.

Renpatsu · Mar 30, 2016

That colour palette and diorama presentation is gorgeous.

Ran rp · Mar 30, 2016

art direction is killer

MrHoot · Mar 30, 2016

Digging the overall presentation, artstyle and music

RS4- · Mar 30, 2016

I'd have that hang on my wall. Looking forward to more info.

mclem · Mar 30, 2016

Not sure I really see the inspirations there (other than 'isometric'), but it's a gorgeous look. How's it an open world, though? Those look to be discrete individual environments.

Vuze · Mar 30, 2016

Looks stunning, will follow this one for sure!

Nikodemos · Mar 30, 2016

Syndicate in a Happy Happy Funland setting?

Yis ples.

satire77 · Mar 30, 2016

Love the artstyle, i can't wait to play it.

It seems like a mix between captain toad, monument valley and gta.

Insolitus · Mar 30, 2016

I'm usually not too fond of isometric perspectives in games, but man this really does look pretty.

Saint of Killers · Mar 30, 2016

Does that artstyle have a name? Japanese pop? (Maybe not the art itself but the theme of the art...)

Afrodium · Mar 30, 2016

Looks great. I'm a bit worried about the perspective though. Looks like it's too far away to actually see what's happening in a firefight.

sora87 · Mar 30, 2016

Looks cosy

You're pretty much there. They game seems to be influenced by Japanese pop art (although toned downed compared to actual examples which are much more complex) and science fiction in general which accounts for some of the architectural and aesthetic choices. Couple that with a low poly art and the subtle tilt-shift effect and you get that diorama look.

bounchfx · Mar 30, 2016

Ok, that's fucking awesome. Talk about Fresh. wasn't sure what I was seeing in the screenshots other than pretty, but after watching the trailer.. this is legit cool.

Gacha-pin · Mar 30, 2016

lol@0:50 must be Kagawa.

plasmawave · Mar 30, 2016

2017

kami_sama · Mar 30, 2016

Looks great. The artstyle has picked my interest, and the gameplay looks cool.

Thank you!

The zoomed out camera is pretty interesting. Those portraits are horrible though.

YOU HACK FRAUD!

Digging the art style and I've been a sucker for GTA 1/Syndicate type of games. I'm definitely in.

forms · Mar 31, 2016

I really like the style. Would be very interesting to see what this plays like.

Mdk7 · Mar 31, 2016

Love the art direction, would love to give it a go!

EdibleKnife · Apr 2, 2016

Really want to play this. What engine is the team using?
