PushSquare: "Dead Nation creates an unbelievably tense atmosphere through frustrating methods. The game’s dark, zombie-laden world is enhanced by an incredible lighting engine, but is hindered by a distant camera and an imprecise aiming mechanic.

Dead Nation’s design choices make sense for the context, but they don’t always result in an entertaining experience."

Housemarque is famed for its downloadable console games including Super Stardust, Dead Nation, Alienation, PS4 launch title Resogun and now Nex Machina. The veteran Finnish developer has made a name for itself crafting, precise, polished, technically accomplished and visually striking titles in publishing partnership with Sony.
With its latest title, Nex Machina, launching for both PS4 and PC, Housemarque is taking its first step into self-publishing. Working in collaboration with pioneering developer Eugene Jarvis, who created arcade classics such as Defender, Robotron: 2084 and Smash TV, Nex Machina represents both a refinement and evolution of Housemarque's design principles, as well as an opportunity for the developer to directly benefit from establishing and retaining its own IP.
Here, Housemarque CEO Ilari Kuittinen and head of publishing Mikael Haveri discuss how the decision to self-publish has led to greater autonomy, a collaboration with Eugene Jarvis and how a game titled "Death Machine" could mean a new lease of life for the company.

What is with people and check points, its like they expect a check point after every few feet. Like how people complain about dead risings save system, it was just fine.
Makes me wonder what these people would of done playing Resident Evil back when you had ribbons and could actually run out of saves. Or NES games where if you run out lives after playing for days you had to start over.
