If there's one thing Gamers like more than games, it's games that aren't out yet. Here's what we've been cooking up in the studio.

Though we're keeping this one close to our collective chests, we can tell you that Strata Scavenger is our first original IP, and we’re pretty stoked about it. The Canada Media Fund even granted us a cool million to develop the game, based on its creative and technical innovation. Strata Scavenger is set for release in 2013.

Although Slant Six's output has been horrible like forever ... from this cover I am interested. I'm a sucker for space lore, and there hasnt been much of this apart from the terrible Mass Effect series (insert suckithaters.gif) and a boring Star Wars MMO. A space flight game like Colony Wars, X or Homeworld would be welcome.

When you release the worst Resident Evil game in the history of mankind to 4.0/10 reviews...

Announce a space sim.

You should have seen the GamesTM review. It's the most venom I ever saw in a review, and this is a quality magazine.

Here are quotes from my copy

There is a distinct possibility that we were in a waking coma while playing through the four hours it took to finish RE:ORC, as it all seems like a hazy memory. Though admit though admittedly that could be just masterful development on the part of Slant Six, encouraging the player to enter a state not too far removed from that of an actual zombie in order to be able to force themselves through this dross.

Quote
We would never wish ill on individuals or a studio as a whole, but the question has to be raised as to why exactly Capcom turned to Slant Six to develop the game and why, when tasked with bringing a new spin to the franchise, the Canadian sudio turned in a something so poor.

I laughed really hard at the RE reviews.

Also Evochron Mercenary looks fantastic
