nDreams announces deep, artistic Venus Redemption |
Ó
In an age where casual gaming has become too big a market to ignore, web-based puzzle games and mini-games of the casual persuasion have lacked much of the deeper elements of the more serious games: the storyline. In order to introduce the appeal of games with depth, nDreams, a developer company encompassing StoryGamer and Parody Games labels, has officially announced their first title to achieve that single purpose: Venus Redemption.
The episodic title, backed by a storyline of novel proportions, will be authored by interactive fiction pioneer Kate Pullinger of "The Piano" fame, with additional help from BAFTA-nominated writer Gordon Rennie. The story will be directed by Jane Campion, while the musical direction and score will be handled by game music veteran Tim Wright of WipEout fame.The game heading to the PC, Nintendo DS, and Nintendo Wii will target female gamers aged 30+, and further details on the game will be revealed on July 5 (after Independence Day), pegged by nDreams' founder Patrick O'Luanaigh as "Redemption Day".
O'Luanaigh was formerly creative director of SCi and Eidos. He also concluded the announcement as saying:
We canÂ’t wait to present Venus Redemption to the world. After many months of development and exhaustive gameplay focus testing, we believe that it will prove a breath of fresh air for the casual game sector, and in particular for female casual gamers. With the technology behind Venus Redemption, we can now rapidly develop immersive and visually impressive story-based casual games that will run on almost any PC.
