Former Fallout art lead Nate Purkeypile, an industry veteran who's worked on games ranging from Metroid Prime 3 to Starfield, is now making an 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:indie game 💃called The Axis Unseen out of the back of a camper.

"Now that I am a solo indie dev, I can make my game anywhere," Purkeypile says on Twitter. "So I have been working on The Axis Unseen out of my camper trailer. I can take it anywhere and still work on the game. It has been super handy!" Purkeypile attached a few images of the camper work setup, and promises more t𒅌o come.

, the dev adds "I still am home often, I just take it out for trips and weekends ♏and stuff. I still work out of it at home though. It's basically my office."

The Axis Unseen is billed as a "heavy metal open world horror hunting" game, and I can't really imagine any genre combination better suited to development in a camper. You h💞unt creatures from folklore with a bow, following tracks, looking for blood trails, and staying undetected by hiding your scent.

Over time, you can collect magical upgrades like fire and wind arrows - which you can use in combination to spread fire across the land. You'll also be able to💮 improve your own senses, so you can see scents on the wind or "see colꩲors that no human has ever seen."

The game's backed with a "primitive metal" soundtrack by Clifford Meyer (formerly of Isis and Red Sparowes) which will adjust dynamically to what's happening as you play - ambient noise as you're exploring, and intense rock when t🐎he action heats up.

The Axis Unseen is on the way to PC via and the with a release date of "when the Axis aligns." (In other words, there�ꦜ�'s no release window yet.) Console versions are listed as "TBD."

Purkeypile previously served as a world artist on games like BloodRayne 2 and Metroid Prime 3 before moving to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Bethesda Game Studios in 2007. There, he served in senior art roles on Fallout 3 (including The Pitt and Point Lookout DLC packs), Skyrim, and Fallout 4, and worke𝓀d as a lead artist on both Fallout 76 and Starfield.

The 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Starfield release date might've been delayed, but we're expecting a lot more info at the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox and Bethesda games showcase next week.
