[aditboy]

Just read about the production troubles. Good to know that its finally getting released! Gives a first year australian game student such as myself some hope hahaha

I do like the switch to hardcore scifi as well!!

[WestH4wk]

Thank you Graffiti Entertainment. I've been waiting for this game for almost a year. I'm looking forward to this so much.

[TheBlackStockEx]

@EndgameStudios..Do you have a release date now that Graffiti Ent will be releasing the game. I so ready to get this game in my hands.

Thanks

[EndgameStudios]

@TheBlackStockEx As Graffiti is distributor, they will control the release date, and as yet we haven't heard what that will be other than Q4 2011. We'll announce it on twitter and facebook as soon as we know! We can't wait to get it out to folks too, thanks for your support.

[bailey676710]

@TheBlackStockEx I am looking forward to the release of this game. The publishing company looks small but is about to release four Reader Rabbit games for the Wii. I hope they get this game out on time.

[Rivalseeker]

Hey people at Endgame Studios... it's been quite a while since you announced this game... is it still coming out? You still got a buyer here. :)

[EndgameStudios]

@Rivalseeker Hi Rivalseeker. We have been a bit quiet - but FS will be coming out very soon. When we have a date, we'll announce on twitter and also the Fractured Soul facebook page. Stay tuned, and thanks for appreciating our hard work!

[Rivalseeker]

@EndgameStudios

Not a problem. Good luck with the rest of development! :)

[thejobloshow]

Oh what the fuck - this looks good.

[anonymous4698]

Personally I think the side-scrolling SHMUP scenes look brilliant, but the platforming bits not so much....

But of course, I am a SHMUP fan =p

[glamourfields]

Go Frezned!

[MatikaTiki]

Frezned helped develop this and OMG it looks so cool. No wonder Meekakitty liked it.

[shadowmane55]

omfg.... i thought that the ds was creative but this is out of this world!!!!

[brennymaeb]

That is the most brilliant way I've seen a game use both screens wisely.

[creitz91]

i cant calculate that many tasks in my tiny brain at once...

[BoxNinjaProductions]

gah, that seems so freaking complicated but awesome to play.

[lil22ish]

[Sonic2332]

Looks very difficult having to multitask like that. It also looks very fun!

[palkers]

Can you release a PC version on Steam ? I'd buy it.

[srynone]

Finally, a DS game that makes me WANT to buy a DS again.

[tvfan777]

Any luck with publishers guys? (outside of Aus)

[Oraclesofalex]

Whoa! Radical!!

[BerserkerDragon95]

this game will make my head explode

[skylerpony]

I can't wait to play this. The retro gamer in me says it feels... Amiga!

[AdmiralMemo]

Holy freaking crap! I have hard enough trouble keeping up with Trine with switching characters. Switching action between screens? *brain breaks*

[daze311]

Wow this looks to be a very fun and challenging game hope someone pick's this up Soon

[fishfingers40k]

I just have 1 question.

Why did it it any company so long to come up with this idea?

After a bit of research I did find 1 game, Slidatron developed and unrealeased by... Endgame Studios (in 2007).

While Fractured Soul does look better, Slidatron did look good and must have cost a fair amount to develop. So why was it never released?

[EndgameStudios]

@fishfingers40k Nice work on the research! You're right - we've had the concept for this game for years. Originally we built a kids-focused version called 'Slidatron' and pitched it to publishers back in 2006/2007. Publishers loved the concept but thought launching a new brand for kids would be too difficult and costly. It was only ever a demo at this time though. When we rebranded it as Fractured Soul for an older audience, it became a much more attractive proposition for publishers.

[SaruOmega]

@EndgameStudios Based on recent information, have you switched the development of this game to the 3DS?

[Despair805]

Where & when can I get my hands on this? Looks AWESOME.

[Rivalseeker]

Hey EndgameStudios... I don't know where you guys came from, but you certainly have my attention with this game. :)

I like the idea how this game will take advantage of both screens by switching between them to avoid obstacles and such--very innovative if you ask me. Not to mention, you got in this trailer what I love best about 2D side-scrolling games... a dark, techno-like atmosphere, a challenging difficulty, and some trippy badass music.

I wish y'all the best of luck for the end result!

[PeopleCanWearYou]

I helped do the testing for some of  this game ~~ takes a while to get the hang of hahaha, can be sooo confusing -.-" really adictive though, you should seriously consider to get it when its released

[OldVikingSchool]

the music reminds me of the flash game Canabalt. Love that game and even if it does or does not have any similarities to this game, I'll probally going to love this.

[Kokosnuss]

I'd love to play this game but it reminds me of super metroid, which is kinda good and bad. Though I like the concept, I think this game has some design issues...

[MrRico666]

Nintendo Design a handheld with a lot of potential, but nobody have used so good the 2 screens, the result is that the N3DS use the bottom screen just as a controler with touch and maps... this game IS JUST FUCKING AWESOME!!! I want to buy this game it's a great work

[noseriouslyguys]

i would love to play this! someone pick this up!!

[muzboz]

Sweet! Wow, I want it! Awesome music.

Where do I BUY this game??

[Daftpunny]

Oh please. The world ends with you was muuuuuch worse.

[KrazyKain]

looks awesome, what Chronos Twin should have been

[skinu]

@25Robbo25

Thanks dude.

[TheOneFreeMind]

The music is fantastic. Will it be available from anywhere? I'd love to have this on my iPod

[RyxEuclie]

What's the song in the trailer?

[riichiee]

this looks freakin sweet, when is it coming out?

[es1064]

Blew...my...fucking...MIND!

[bjangoapps]

For those interested, the song playing is Thanks For Your Time by Gotye (Bitrok remix). It's on the Mixed Blood compilation.

[usher8703]

WTF !! this sweet as

this definetly rapes all the 2d platformers i've ever played @_@

[TheR9RO]

Anyone here played Chrono Twins?

Its very similar. Except you control both dudes at the same time.

[awesomefrog1]

THAT LOOKS SO HARD

[SuperStingray]

Who's composing the music? I have to know!

[Samulise]

That looks awesome!

[crimsa]

holy crap, this looks awesome

[technocrat9000]

That's pretty cool. But will it have CRATES???

[ahmedp800]

Amazing Game!!!

ORIGINAL...I hope you have plans for the upcoming Nintendo 3DS

Keep it up

[pigma123]

Now that looks just awesome

[letsgo33]

Looks fun!

[RoboFillet]

Looks awesome!

[Aftermathrar]

Is this going to be a retail game or only available on DSiWare?

[EndgameStudios]

@Aftermathrar It's a retail DS game, not DSiWare.

[whaleyboy0]

Took me a while to find it, but the music is Gotye - Thanks for your time (Bitrok remix).

[xXWamboXx]

it's a remix from the remix ^^

[dn92fma]

@whaleyboy0 Do you have a download link?

[tangentreality]

I want that song. And that game. o_o

[chromatixmedia]

Wow. Can't wait till it comes out. Very unique

[mariotaz]

Very very inventive. Love the idea. Looks fun and challenging

[Meggie1707]

omg! you move from screen to screen?! thats awesome!!! :D

[brawsome]

Nice work guys, looks awesome =0).

[theXylinder]

Okay, now that is seriously cool! WELL done!

[realrayman1]

ha, neat!

[DavidWithBadHair]

Dual world mechanic looks very well thought out, the ghost image in the inactive half is genius.

I would hope you guys have some later game abuse of the mechanic planned, a disruptor enemy who forces you into one world, or an opponent so powerful that their presence ripples between the worlds.

Remember that a game can innovate via a single gimmick, if very well written, or supported by a host of unique game play possibilities.

Keep up the good work.

Give Tom a raise.

[petaargh]

Woah epic!!

[hannahjoyhopes]

oh lord, i would be so confused by this. however, i don't really play video games. my brother who does thinks this is amazing, though.

[REMsleeper428]

NO FUCKING WAY! This seems amazing.

[yendificer]

This looks awesome! I hope this gets published - I would definitely buy it!

[Petrozium]

truely awesome!

[baboon1972]

Looks awesome. Particularly like the double screen side scrolling shooter action... Sweet!

[SpruceyLucy74]

hope this gets the attention that it deserves

[grahamhaverston]

I wish you success. This looks fantastic.

[darkmantid]

Wow this looks trippy! I love the screen switching nuttyness

[Kooovin]

that's a sick concept

[tagalicious2789]

this looks fantastic.

[mebee4]

Holy crap that looks so confusing, haha. A really cool concept though. I get the feeling it'd be a struggle to go back to 'single screen' games and not be able to shift about so much after playing this.

[killedxbyxdrapery]

This looks amazing!

[SuperSmashedBrother]

Kewl!

[Arilou92]

Great concept...

[Jennericious]

play on BOTH screens??? sweet

[MonKeePal624]

@Jennericious: Kinda like The World Ends With You, cuz you use gotta keep an eye on both screens w/o the hero dying, only more action-adventury!

[frezned]

lookin' cool guys! kickass trailer too!

[HarryTheBunnyMaster]

wow, this looks awesome

[erinfaceface]

The anti-gravity level looks fricken awesome!! :D
