Some light is being shed on Deadline Games' pre-bankruptcy projects with 1up revealing that the 'Watchmen' developers were working on three unannounced titles. There is also some clarification regarding the reason 'Faith and a .45' never found itself a deal.
Lund was able to spill the beans on the first of the two downloadable titles: a science fiction-themed three-on-three football game set in zero gravity. Tentatively titled "Zero-G," the game lets one player control all three teammates simultaneously, with a flick of the analog stick sending them in the same direction, and a push of the jump button issuing that command to all three as well.
Lund hesitated to talk specifics on the retail game, claiming that some publishers took exception with the studio's unveiling of Faith and a .45 (recently put on hold) before a publishing deal was signed. "We took a chance with Faith and a .45 by letting the public know about the game before we signed a deal," he explained. "And not every publisher is happy to do that, because they want to be in full control of when things get released to the press."
