Needless to say the 2005's first person shooter Painkiller was a cult favorite for fans of the genre. Last year, members of the game's development team have created a new company called The Farm 51 and are using the Painkiller engine for an all new title called NecroVisioN.
From the interview:
GGMania: To start off, can you give us a brief overview of NecroVisioN?
Kamil Bilczynski: NecroVisioN is a war-horror shooter with fantasy elements, the main idea of which is a combination of shooting & spells in brutal and intensive combat. The player is like Van Helsing, meeting the undead during the Great War - an explosive journey leads him into the Underground Kingdom of vampires and demons. Our goal is to create a title with a huge fun factor coming from shooting and basic combat with the addition of some unusual and unprecedented elements in such type of games like spells or fatalities.
The PC has a lot of indie titles in its enormous library to choose from. Picking a decent game out of the sea of crap is a tough nut to crack. We pick out 10 games worthy of your attention. Best of all, they won’t break the bank.
Necrovision is awesome, especially if you're a fan of the Painkiller series and made with most of the same key members of the first one. Never really considered it 'indie'.
Can't wait to play 'Lost Company.
Still, in a turn of fortune, Farm 51 are making Painkiller Hell and Damnation.
Online video game retailer Amazon has released it's video game download deals of the week.
Nordic Games GmbH has today announced an agreement with The Farm 51, an experienced development studio responsible for the NecroVision series, Time Ace and contributions to Two Worlds II. Furthermore, members of the team at The Farm 51 have previously worked on smash hits such as Painkiller and The Witcher. Nordic Games and The Farm 51 have already begun working on an unannounced title.
