Big Blue: The new Ecco game, basically

[Nando]

lol.

They just need to show more gameplay footage.

True, what they had on the kickstarted looked more like an interactive aquarium than anything close to what they were describing.

They should integrate Snorks into the game.

SWIM ALONG WITH THE SNORKS

Seemed very "Endless Ocean" ish ....

[Arkhan]

Yeah, except Endless Ocean is just special olympics underwater adventures compared to a game like Ecco!

The first thing they show is touch controls on a tablet. Put me right off.

They fully hope (if game is successful) to get the game on "traditional" platforms with traditional control pads. That said, this might be one of "those" games that actually work well with touch controls... (Hey! I'm trying to be optimistic)

Yeah.  I'm not sure why they chose that to show.   Hopefully they show some PC footage soon.

Latest update is that the Big Blue is cancelled, pending Little Blue instead to stepping stone to Big Blue.

also, Oculus Rift support.


Life is awesome.

$55K of its $650K goal? This project failed miserably. That's ok, we're still getting Larry!

Yeah but they're doing Little Blue as a smaller kickstarter to demonstrate what the game is going to be, because people are doofs and didn't quite get it.
