The men and women behind Gemini Rue and Resonance are back with more pixel-hunting.

Robotos de MUERTOS

Looks Machinarium-esque

Love this. Make sure you guys upvote it on Steam Greenlight.

So the main guy with the mask and blue eyes is really a human, not a robot?

Looks like Machinarium combined with Beneath a Steel Sky. I approve of this.

Dat soundtrack.....

Looks super cool. I still need to play their other games that I've bought

Posted by HappyCheeze

Interesting premise, dope looking art. I want

Looks really fantastic. I wish there was a way to play Wadjet Eye games on my mac. Oh well, I've been thinking about installing a windows partition on this old macbook pro anyway.

I still need to beat Gemini Rue! This looks cool, love the song.

I thought indie games aren't allowed to be brown for risk of community flogging.

Every time I see a new wadjet eye game, a small part of me wishes they'd switch engines from ags to visionaire engine or something.

Best trailer I've seen all week.

Fuck you. I'm sure you figured it out and if you hadn't of said anything I could of played this game without expecting a twist at all. That is why I found the twist in Gemini Rue pretty good.

Awww yeeeeah!

Posted by Dagbiker

I still need to buy Gemini Rue. But whenever I go to buy it I never have any money, or I find something else to buy.

Posted by Ramone

These guys don't get enough credit for what they do. Gemini Rue was fucking awesome and Resonance is almost as good.

A little too "summer blockbuster trailer"-ey for what seems to be a fairly cool cyberpunk adventure game.

Does cyberpunk imply any human interaction? Is this robotpunk, or something? Whatever the case, I'm glad there are people exploring other opportunities besides 'near-future conflicts in Arab nations'.

Fucking cynic.

But! A traditional adventure game about a military conflict in an Arab nation sounds like it could be awesome.

Did you just spoil a game that hasn't even come out yet ={ I hate you because you're probably right.

Well, this game seems awesome anyway...

Man, with illustrations this good, the choppy/cheap animation is unfortunate. I wish a developer like Wadjeteye, or Wormwood here, would partner up with some animators. Could you imagine if a game like Braindead 13, Dragon's Lair or The Act were paired with the storytelling and puzzles and atmosphere of something like this?

Get a real Beneath a Steel Sky vibe from this.

@Flacracker: @BeachThunder: I'm sure the creators of goddamn Gemini Rue came up with something more to this game than one twist. Maybe I'm wrong, and even if I'm not, this still looks great.

So these AREN'T the people who made Machinarium?

I really hope the next generation of consoles adopts releasing these kinds of games on their respective platforms, at least through digital distribution (wishful thinking? ; / ).

Damn, Wadjet is crankin' that shit out

Posted by MeatSim

Definitely gonna be a Quick Look of this with Vinny in the future.

Posted by Fjordson

This looks absolutely fantastic. Wadjet Eye is putting out so much quality lately.

A shame Valve still makes them go through Steam Greenlight for some bizarre reason.

They shouldn't have made it pixelated. I understand that they want to maintain a retro art style because of the genre, but the art looks amazing. I want to be able to see it as clearly as possible.

If the pixel look is so important to them, they could have added a retro option in the settings.
