I love this trailer. Looks like you guys have been working really hard on the game. You definitely stand a good chance at the IGF (particularly when it comes to technical excellence).

@TheGameSquid Thanks! Actually I'm just one guy working on the game.

@facepalmgames what console are you guys coming to?

[facepalmgames]

@pankow93 At the moment to no console. Just on things with mouses.

good art style. needs to be completely 3d. needs better character and object design.

@facepalmgames will it be compatible with windows vista? Would I have to download it or buy it at a store? Your game reminds me of a platforming version of dead space.

this looks incredible! I hope you'll get a decent money for making this. Such original and beautiful idea needs to be rewarded. And I love your choice of music in this trailer, hopefully this minimalistic piano track will be in the game. Good luck and fingers crossed for your success!

I love one developer games. One of my favorites is Eskil Steenberg of Quel Solaar's Love.

I'm looking forward to the Swapper twice as much. Good luck with your work. It's looking amazing.

@facepalmgames Oh, my bad. I could have sworn I read that there were two developers on IndieDB.

This makes the game even more impressive of course!

I really like the look of this. It looks like you took the art style of Dead Space and the exploration of Metroid to make a really cool game.
