While it definitely looks impressive, some folks may remember that Euclideon's previous boasts had Minecraft creator Markus "Notch" Persson calling Infinite Detail a scam. Two years after doubling down on its claims that their tech would revolutionize how games would be made, Euclideon laid off a significant number of staff last June.

For video game enthusiasts, the most noteworthy part of Euclideon's re-emergence is the statement—in the YouTube description of their most recent video—that they'll be releasing two games using the Infinite Detail engine in 2015.

Regarding games:

Euclideon will be releasing two games in 2015 using this technology.

Euclideon is currently open for investors in its games division, if you are interested please contact us.

If these games come out, they might finally put the doubt swirling around Euclideon to bed. And if those games don't come out, then the same questions about what the company can deliver will linger.
