Ace Team’s Zeno Clash: New Screenshots
It has been a few months since we last updated folks on the upcoming title, Zeno Clash, but we caught up with them and have received a few new screenshots of their progress in the game. They’ve also cracked open a forum so people can talk with the developers about their upcoming game; in today’s world it’s important to keep an ear on the industry and its audience so we applaud their willingness to take questions from the general public.
Zeno Clash uses the Source Engine to accomplish it’s fantastic visuals and build off a foundation of a successful structure. Zeno Clash is a first-person action/fighting game set in a punk fantasy world and should be roughly the length of a Half-Life episode.
The first inspiration was a set of game books of the 1980’s; the Sorcery series from Steve Jackson, mainly because of John Blanche’s art. But we have also drawn inspiration from a lot of other sources like the art of Hieronymus Bosch, The Dark Crystal film, etc.
You can expect to hear some music from Audiosurf’s Pedro Camacho:
“Pedro is an exceptional composer. We’ve worked closely with him to get a rich and elaborate soundtrack that is as inspiring and unique as the art. We care a lot about music, so we were very glad when Pedro joined us. He’s been very enthusiast about the project. We recently finished agreeing on the ingedients for the music. There is still a lot to create, but we’re definitely on the right path. We’re confident that the game’s soundtrack will be a great addition to the game. The teaser trailer was orchestrated by Pedro so you can expect some of the music to go along, but we have so many different settings that there will be a lot of variety in the music as well.” (playhard.ru)
