Orphan is a dark (think Limbo) styled action platformer that looks fantastic. Good visuals, and a setting revolving around aliens; well count me interested!

It's currently on Steam Greenlight, and it looks like they will do a Kickstarter in future too.

About the game
Orphan draws inspiration from the classic 2D games of gaming's golden era. Orphan focuses on immersive gameplay, visuals and atmosphere and channels classics like Another World, Blackthorne and Oddworld: Abe's Oddysey, with a touch of Journey to Silius. Oh yeah and let's not forget a little Limbo.

You will sneak across the countryside through open fields and dense forests, over dangerous mountains and through lush valleys, ducking behind rocks and trees all while being pursued by an army of machines designed to destroy all life. However the machines have their weaknesses and they carry powerful weapons that may be able to be used against them.

What do you think?

I'm interested but we'll see if they get back to me about whether there will be DRM free versions and a playable demo.
