Alice: Madness Returns nominated for 2011 G4 award!
on December 6th, 2011 at 10:00 am
In case you missed the broadcast last night, our intrepid team of indie devs got another feather in their hat with a nomination from G4′s “X-Play” for Best Art Direction! A nomination, as they say, is not a win, but look at our wonderful company in this category. Arkham City, El Shaddhai, Portal 2, and Uncharted 3? It’s going to be a tough race, and we’re deeply honored to be considered.
The final announcement will be made on December 14th on G4 at 6pm EST. Check your local listings for the specifics.
You can see the episode for yourself right here:
Dammit, McGee, WIN THIS. Just… WIN THIS, MAN. Probably aside from El Shaddai, no other game has art as good as this one. I mean… what game in the entire friggin’ spectrum of gaming has scenery so good, that 90% of screenshots are wallpaper-worthy?
Alice was my personal game of the year this year. A platformer that does platforming and action RIGHT, an amazing story, graphics to drool at… I mean, the hair physics alone deserve a prize.
I’m saying this as a guy who’s had to eat his own words in the past as to how some of your past efforts were less than satisfactory. But you came out with what’s probably one of my favorite games ever. One of the most enjoyable rides I’ve ever had the pleasure of having.
I’m doing what I can here by telling everyone the game’s amazing and bought two copies. You be sure to at least press on some EA toes for a DLC permission.
That’s pretty cool! c:
I think it should also win best game and story line.
I mean Watch it!!
EXTREME NIGHTMARE MODE!!! ENJOY AMR BETTER THAN EVER!!!! 1. Set the game on Nightmare Mode. 2. Equip the Royal Suit Dress to limit health to 4 roses total. 3.
