Interesting....

 

There is AD in this website for Oxide's Star Swarm Test which uses the Nitrous Engine.

In the description it further more SAYS the following:

 

"The Nitrous engine is already in use for two games currently in production: an unannounced title from Oxide Games and Stardock’s Star Control reboot. Nitrous is also available for licensing to interested game developers. "


So Star Control Reboot it is then???

And what are your impressions on this Nitrous Engine?

Does a game like SCR need a Nitrous Engine? What is SD's aim in using the Nitrous Engine? Will there me massively scaled space battles????

The Nitrous Engine is a wise choice, graphics wise it can allow developers to import their graphics into it with very little trouble. Massively scaled battles is not likely and I would be disappointed if it came to fruition. With the advent of planet fall I see this engine as a good choice if your dealing with atmospheric effects.
