Just found out that 10tacle went bankrupt in August and the entire team behind Outcast was scattered to the four winds. OK, old news now it's November, but this is the first I've heard and haven't seen any mention of it on this forum.
This might not mean much to anyone who never played Outcast, but when you consider it means that one of the most awesome potentially ground breaking games in development is no more, it's a sad day for any gamer.
Totems was going to be a parkour based game from the Outcast team, and from the development graphics and write-ups it was shaping up to be my most anticipated games this decade. It was due to be finished next year.
The second video on this page shows some painfully amazing production stuff that will never see the light of day.
The first video is a kind of cut down cheap spin off to gain some cash from all the hard work that went into Totems. Looks to be a mere shadow of the original concept, but even that was scrapped when the company went under.
Also a spread of some of the features involved in Totems.
So much potential.
You may weep now.
