Edge Of Twilight Screens

Normally, whenever I see or hear the word 'Steampunk' (i.e. whenever I read Boing Boing) I fly into an uncontrollable rage and start Hulking Out with anguished cries of, "Arrrrgh! GET A NEW MEME YOU VICTORIANA-OBSESSED LOSERS!"

But then, doesn't everyone?

Edge Of Twilight just about avoids my wrath due to the lack of any obvious fob watches or handlebar moustaches. It looks a lot less Planescape Torment than the last time we looked in its direction though, which is a little disappointing.

Edge Of Twilight Gets Publisher, 2009 Release

SouthPeak Games has announced that it will be publishing Fuzzyeyes' steampunk action-adventure fantasy Edge of Twilight for 'next-gen' consoles and the PC in North America and Europe in 2009. The game features an art direction that I have described in the past as "vaguely reminiscent of something out of the Planescape D&D universe." And while the brief teaser trailer they released back in October didn't exactly knock me off my feet, the screenshots and concept art coming from Fuzzyeyes continues to impress me, as does the official game website. They got another year to make this game spectacular. Here's hoping they use it wisely!

SOUTHPEAK GAMES TO PUBLISH FUZZYEYES' EDGE OF TWILIGHT
Steampunk Action-Adventure Fantasy Game To Debut In 2009

GRAPEVINE, TX - December 6, 2007 - SouthPeak Games, a leading publisher and distributor of entertainment software, today announced it will be publishing FUZZYEYES' upcoming colossus Edge of Twilight in North America and Europe. Scheduled for release in 2009 on next-gen consoles and PC, Edge of Twilight is a fast paced cinematic combat and action game set in a steampunk inspired fantasy world.

"Edge of Twilight appealed to us because of its exquisitely original vision," said Katie Morgan, Executive Vice President at SouthPeak Games. "We look forward to working with the talented team at FUZZYEYES on this incredibly ambitious title."

Edge of Twilight promises a look into a post-apocalyptic landscape where day and night no longer coexist. As the only living half-breed, Lex, the player travels between the two parallel realms engaging in over-the-top battles and exploring a living and breathing, yet desperate, landscape.

"Edge of Twilight has been our labor of love for some time now and we could not be more excited to partner with SouthPeak to bring it to market," said Wei-Yao Lu, CEO of FUZZYEYES. "There is still so much to reveal about the game we can't wait to share more."

A Glimpse Of The Edge Of Twilight

The folks at Fuzzyeyes Studio have got this teaser thing down pat. First they distribute it via YouTube, of all places, which isn't really conducive to discernible details. Then they trim it to 20 seconds long, which is actually closer to 12 once you figure in titles and blank spots. While I still see some traces of the Planescape flavor I saw in the screenshots previously, the combat looks a great deal more visceral than I expected. I suppose this is the action portion of this action adventure game.

Edge of Twilight Channels Planescape

Edge of Twilight is a 3rd person action adventure game for the 360 and PC that takes place in a post-apocalyptic world that combines steampunk and alternative fantasy elements to create something vaguely reminiscent of something out of the Planescape D&D universe. You might remember the name from Planescape: Torment, the best D&D computer game ever created no matter what you or anyone else says. For more on the story and setting, visit Edge of Twilight.com, which really drives home the whole Planescape feel of the title. Otherwise check out these beautiful first screenshots of a game that I will be paying a great deal of attention to in the coming months.
