Unity

It's a shame that it's so hard to hear what he's saying in the movies, because it sounds like he's describing what's happening and how you play the game.

Here's some quotes that I found interesting:

Well, I'm certainly glad that people are liking what they are seeing in the vids. remember it's early days yet and everything is a bit raw and not particularly aesthetically pleasing. It's going to get *lots* better than that.

The way in which the music and the visuals interact will be quite clear when Unity is released.

Nope, GameCube.

Minter's the hairy one on the left and Molyneux is the one in the middle with WaveBird in hand and the dumbfounded look on his face :)

Looks incredible.

Wow, minter looks just like how I would expect someone to who designs games like this. He really should brush his teeth though, yikes.

Oh and this game looks fucking fantastic! I have been wanting a game like this for a very long time, I just wish I could make the gameplay out more.

Holy shit it's for Gamecube? Sweet. I never thought a game like this would hit cube.

Release date? PLLLLLEASE tell me it's sometime in the next year. *-neo

No release date at all. The entire game is a one-man project in concept, design, and programming. It's Jeff Minter all the way with Lionhead only doing publishing duties.

So it might be a while yet, sadly. Personally, I'm guessing spring.

sounds like a dream job, doesn't it?

i doubt it'll make much money, but with the production costs so low, it won't take much to turn a profit.

Has he talked about why he chose the gamecube? Does he just prefer the hardware or something?

basically. He's coding it all as low-level as possible, and he thought the cube was best for ASM-level work.

...not to mention that he's a always been a fan of Nintendo.
