This. Looks amazing on PS4 Pro in HDR too.
Looking forward to seeing what they do next, now that they're leaving the arcade style games behind.
A shame Housemarque is staying away from the arcade genre but excited to see what kind of title they can pump out. I wish them nothing but success.
Signed up. Resogun and Alienation are amazing, Nex Machina and Matterfall are high on my wishlist.
Signed up, Nex Machina was amazing. Can't wait to see what they come up with next, even if it's not arcade :(
Resogun is still the best, great weekly challenge this week too.
Can't wait to see what they do next.

PC? Testers? Early in development? Oh jeez. I guess Housemarque is done for me. Oh well. At least they gave me some awesome arcade twin stick overhead and platform shooters.
Bought it twice. I love Housemarque.
Speaking of which, I'd love a patch for the PC version so that the stupid mouse pointer disappears when using a controller. It only shows up in menus but it's pretty annoying!
I really love Outland, it's one of my favorite games of all time! It'd be amazing if they decided to revisit the idea later on.
I'll assume they're gonna make use of Early Access.
It will break my heart if Housemarque go PC only.

I'm guessing they're a two game studio for now. Their last 2 games were pretty close to each other release date wise.
I doubt they'll leave console behind, they have a small but solid fan base. I'm guessing one experimental pc title and 1 more by the numbers pc /console title.
Outland 2 would be cool.

Day One
The developer realized the niche for neo-arcade games is very small and they need to go multiplatform to reach the audience
New arcade scene is small and spread across many platforms so they need to go multi and PC to be successful, exclusivity isn't a good idea for HouseMarque anymore
Before it was OK because SSHD could be seen as a premier reason to own a PS3, but the digital download arena has exploded so HouseMarque cannot stand out as an exclusive developer as much in this current digital marketplace
Uh no

Where in the OP does it say multiplatform? Or anything other than PC?
There are several articles about Housemarque going multiplatform
The announcement for this game might be just PC but that doesn't mean they won't go anywhere else. Matterfall couldn't go to other platforms, but their new direction is to be multiplatform as they did with Nex Machina.
They need to start somewhere because again their audience is small, if they are successful there's no reason they won't bring the game to other platforms.
So no they aren't "ditching the PlayStation audience" as you said earlier, this is just their new business plan as a niche game maker

Try to ask for help on their official Discord

I will wait for an actual announcement of platforms rather than whatevet you just said.
TFW you actually use your mobile number, but are in Australia and the testing time is at 3AM or some shit on a Thursday morning.
