Very nice looking. I'm interested in this dual play concept; would this be also playable two player?

Thank you! It supports 4X local multiplayer. Solo play and dual play are supported throughout, so 4 players can play each with one fighter (solo play) or each can control two fighters at once (dual play) for a total of 8 independently controlled fighters at once! |

Oh, wow. That sounds really cool. I've played two player games by myself, but I've never heard of this being intended behaviour! |

I think we are the first to do this. The scores of both "players" are combined. But, the fighters interact exactly as if they are two separate players. And we allow up to eight fighters at once. So, in most 2-player games you can only have one player playing dual play, we allow all four players to do so. I hope this gives us an extra edge in the market. Plus, I think it's an experience shooter fans want to try out! |

8 fighter combat will be madness! should be cool, i'll certainly check it out once it's released. also, you should use your twin brother status to shoehorn interviews and journos. Rehearse your answers so you each say every other word, they'll eat it up!  |

Kudos to you, you are the first person to catch on to that (from our Duality: ZF project anyway)! It's a good marketing idea, though. It certainly gives our story a bit of uniqueness, which is what the journalists want. Thanks for mentioning it! EDIT: I will have to think of a way to sell "ourselves", or rather our story, and not just the game. I think gamers are interested in that stuff, but I could be wrong. I always wanted to be a developer which made those type of stories very interesting, but perhaps not so much so to someone else. |

Eclipse, thanks. What kind of music would you recommend? Not that we are going back on this decision now, we actually love the music.
