- Alone In The Dark Video Shows Innovative Gameplay
- Posted 9 months ago by Veggie Jackson
It seems like an eternity ago that we first heard word of a modern Alone in the Dark game, and for the longest time, we got no further info. Then, a few weeks ago, we got a tech demo that showed some impressive visuals, a cool inventory system, and little else. Yesterday, though, Atari and Eden Studios released a video showing some of the more innovative and intriguing gameplay mechanics at work in the game. I gotta say, it looks pretty damn cool. Check it out:
Ya gotta love that inventory jacket, and the seemingly limitless combinations of items could make this a real challenger for survival-horror supremacy. There’s some interesting physics and lighting mechanics at work as well, making for a pretty dense tech demo. Makes you wonder what kind of craziness to expect in the upcoming demo trailers. I wish we’d gotten a better look at the enemies (which look a whole lot like the head crabs from Half-Life), but so far, everything looks like it’s progressing nicely, and might even be able to meet its expected July 15 street date. I’ll sticky tape a note on the calendar for that day, and hope it somehow explodes. That would be cool.

Awesome, looks like some really cool concepts here. I used to love playing the original alone in the dark. It was a good game, and this is shaping up to be great.
That's one of the most realistic sewers I've ever laid eyes on.
