Stranded - The next big space adventure game?
The Dig anyone?
I don´t know if you guys remember Steven Spielberg and Orson Scott Card´s adventure game "The Dig" (LucasArts, 1995). But that´s the vibes that i got from Peter Moorhead´s indie game "Stranded". But don´t point that out for Peter though (the maker of Stranded).
Because he has probably already heard that 1 million times before. In fact, he made a comment about the comparison between the Dig and his game Stranded on his blog:
“If we’re giving off some of the same atmosphere as it, that’s great, and extremely flattering actually,” he said, “but it wasn’t a style or tone we specifically tried to emulate: Stranded will play out very differently to how The Dig did.” - Peter Moorhead
Anyhow, i find Stranded to be a really interesting and neat adventure game. So i´m going to buy it asap =) (it´s yours for 7 bucks via the games homepage).
