I see what you did there...

It's STEAMPUNK!!!!

 Damn straight. We need more weird in our games!

Here's hoping!

Looks Nito. Because it's dead. Dark Souls puns are fun :D

 In all seriousness, I'm all for this. It looks great and I can't wait for this site to devour even more of my life!

 Damn man, that sucks that you didn't get the job. 

 Also, yeah, I think the soundtrack and artstyle were the main reason I liked this game. Have you played metal gear rising revengence? If so, what did you think?

I really need to get into IOS gaming more. Glad you're doing these, they give me something to look out for in the poorly sorted app store :)

 Yeah dude. It's a GREAT game. Not the best I've played by a long shot and nowhere near the second coming of jesus, but well worth a play.

 I agree gaming works best when it tells it uses it's own narrative tricks. I look to Dark Souls as one example, where the plot is only made available to you if you look for it, by talking to NPC's, reading item descriptions, and paying attention to the world. That couldn't be done in another medium, and it enriches the experience.

 Another great modern example is Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, as it uses it's mechanics to emotionally effect the player and incorporates it into the story. Games need to stop aping other mediums and become their own thing.

 Nice, Brutal Legends introduced you to Iced Earth? That's awesome. Seriously, this is why I love gaming soundtracks.

 Have you heard of the band Nevermore? They're sort of similar to Iced Earth but they have a lot more Thrash Metal in there top balance out the Power metal, and a little bit of Prog metal for good measure!
