Vrenna mixed the different grotesque poems, scary clock sounds, and jack in the box sounds that would make the most professional horror movie director cry in terror. The fantastic levels are accompanied by similar quality music, aka ex-Nine Inch Nails Chris Vrenna provides us with the game’s soundtrack. All of these levels will be a place to fight, jump and survive. A floating castle, a black and white chessboard world, a level full of mirrors, and giant clock cogs. No, what we will remember this game for is the surreal, and otherworldly landscapes. The water textures are also the same regarding the level of detail: it reflects and as transparent as it would be in real life.Īlice looks beautiful, but we won’t remember this game because of the graphics years later. The graphic designers did a first class job at this: the characters are lifelike, and the textures are amazingly detailed.įor instances when I took a picture of an in-game scene I noticed that the tiny parts of the carpet were almost could be told apart by the seams. This uniquely grotesque and original visual world is powered by the Quake 3 engine, and if anyone doubted that this engine cannot show it’s prowess than they’ll be surprised, and should check out this game.

Today’s bedtime story: Quake and Nine Inch Nails
It seems that EA games are continuing this type of lineage with Alice: the developers took Wonderland and filled it with nightmarish creatures, plus the scenery has been changed to resemble a hellish landscape that would give Lewis Carroll a heart attack, or maybe he would enjoy it the most. The developers implanted their unique and often perverse humor into Messiah, in which we control an “innocent” angel that takes over other people’s body, and we get to serve judgment in the most sadistic ways. Finally, the assumption that those who like 3D action games are only interested in Tomb Raider clones with sexy women, or Duke Nukem clones are at last seem to be going away! The breakthrough first came with Shiny’s MDK (A sci-fi / parody game), and it’s recently released the sequel.
