Hey guys, I represent to you our new game which will be released on Xbox Live Indie Games next month. It is called T.E.C. 3001 (Tesla Energy Collector) and it is third person, 3D action arcade game. You are guiding a robot through virtual space to collect energy for human kind. It will have 20 levels with many different obstacles. It's easy to learn but hard to master, especially on latter levels where robot runs with great speed. Check out our gameplay video from the unfinished version and we will soon update topic with new videos follow us on facebook http://www.facebook.com/PhoenixGameStudio

Love the Tron-ish style you've got here! However, I don't understand why you constantly have the trailer freeze and slowly fade in and out for a game that seems to be about speed and momentum? Also, no sound?

Thx for suggestion,
Yeah, that slowing down was a mistake and we didn't paid much attention on production of the video (we didn't even called it trailer :D). This was just to give a peek into gameplay at a time when music and sound were not yet developed. Next video will contain sounds, and some interesting levels which were also in development during the making of that video.

I love that character model. The game looks fine, the only problem I have with these games in general is that here isn't enough background variations. This is what would bring this game up from "flash-quality" to "good quality". This is XBLIG after all.

We implemented option to change game theme. There are about 10 themes in game which change, for now, colors of the surroundings. And some new elements are being added as you progress through game.

This looks pretty cool - are you planning on doing more work on the run animation? It stands out as looking a bit weak (needing polish)

Very nice graphics. The gameplay looks quite exciting. It seems to have a lot of similarities to Tasty Static.
