A fascinating look at the new survival horror adventure from the makers of classic Amiga, Flashback
OK, so we all feel that we 've had our zombie-filled adventures in the past few years, but at least try some video game developers to improvise on the familiar theme of the undead apocalypse. Techland while trying to bring an emotional family dynamic to its open world thriller Dead Iceland, French studios have Lexis Num?rique and vector cell was inspired by the legendary Ico for their upcoming PSN title.
AMY is set 20 years into the future. A comet has crashed into the earth, spreading a virus zombifying, and a young woman named Lana is in chaos. Trapped in a small town in the Midwest, sees her future looks bleak until she crosses paths with the same name and eight-year-old Amy autistic girl with strange powers. The player 's mission is that strange child as the duo attempt to flee the city to protect past the shuffling masses of monsters.
Like in Ico, you can keep pressing a key by Amy 's hand and take it to the environment - you can even feel her heart pumping through the rumble on the pad (and you can know is how stressed out it - which apparently is an important element). In return, she offers healing: In an interesting twist on the idea of ??the zombie plague, Lana can afford to be partially infected to pass groups of undead savages - but she needs Amy close to heal them and prevent the disease from consuming them both.
Paul Cuisset, the game 's director and head of the vector cell, is a French video game veteran, previously responsible for founding one of the county' s major studios, dolphins. No longer exist, the company was responsible for some of the most fascinating and eccentric adventure titles of the nineties with Cruise for a Corpse and Another World (written by Eric Chahi working even now to an interesting downloadable title From Dust).
vector cell has a short development time diary, which you can see above is released. It 's short, but it handy lists available almost all the trendy new graphics technology. See if you can fall at least two of them in casual conversation today.
AMY is based on PS3's download later this summer.
