I really can't say it bothers me. Zeno Clash is undoubtedly one on my most anticipated upcoming titles and Overgrowth is far too early in development to generate huge buzz outside the fan/indie-lover/developer group.

What is this Zeno Clash thing anyway?

*looks up Zeno Clash*

...

:shock: Whoa. Yeah, umm... no surprise there. Pure unadulterated awesome*. It would have been an injustice if they didn't win. Such a pity it isn't cross-platform.



*Except the protagonist. He looks silly.

Those were my thoughts exactly. Zeno Clash looks fun. Kind of reminds me of Mirror's Edge but without the focus on parkour.

I just think Zeno Clash looks creepy as all get out ... I watched the movies with freaky animals and the long legged dude with kids .... had a dream he was chasing me .... insane ...

anyway, it looks good and all ... but I think OG will have a longer lasting appeal thanks to all the work that the Wolfire team is putting in. I don't doubt that I'll like Zeno Clash ... but, for how long?

Nah, gameplay is more like Mirror's Edge than Dark Messiah. Dark Messiah didn't have a focus on hand-to-hand combat.

Well, in light of the new blog post I think we should give ourselves a big pat on the back.

5th place out of over 300 is amazing, especially looking at the competition and considering how far along some of the other teams were.

There's no doubt in my mind that if this competition had been half a year later with OG in late beta it would have been a close second or even first place.

why the hell does ModDB call the hero "Jak" (or "Jack"?) in their Upcoming Indie of the Year video?

Haha, yeah, that was pretty strange... Maybe Jack seemed like a natural name for a crazy fighter bunny? But they could have uh, y'know, checked the facts? Perhaps?
