Inside The Tech Inside: The Swindle


You may remember we exclusively revealed Size Five Games' The Swindle all the way back in July. Details have been scarce on it ever since, but I managed to sneak into the Size Five blog, where I found Dan sharing fresh news of the engine that The Swindle will be running on. Here he is, in his own highly quotable words:

The GiANT engine is built on four core technologies, which have allowed me to construct a custom platform game engine capable of all sorts of whizzy graphical treats.

He goes on to talk about physics doodahs, and lighting wotsits. Sounds complicated: But fun! He says he's "largely targeting PC", and that's because PC is the best!

Read all about the GiANT Engine here, and get regular bite sized development updates on Dan's twitter. This one is sounding like it could be something special.
