Lunar software is an independent development team of 3 with sound and music from Mick Gordon. This indie team today announced its Unreal Engine 3 powered horror game, Routine. Routine is an 80s vision of the futureset on an abandoned Moon base, it is a new first person horror exploration game which has a heavy emphasis on hiding, survival and Perma death!
Routine’sMoon base will be a non linear experience that lets you explore any part of the base, including hidden areas that other players may not find, a number of randomised environmental hazards, AI locations and floppy disks to update the software for your Cosmonaut Assistance Tool!
Routine is their first title that uses Unreal Engine 3, looking to release early 2013 for PC and MAC.
Space game and running away from stray robots? hahaha.
Actually looks good

Yeah looks outstanding. I love games like this. They totally nailed down the environment and feel.
Even more badass is that it looks like it will ship with oculus support. Prepare to shit your pants like never before playing a game like this with oculus.

I'm just glad you CAN defend yourself, even if just a little. I'm not entirely sure how I feel about Outlast yet and is probably the reason why I'm not all that keen on Amnesia - it feels incredibly restricting to just have to run everywhere, oh no! quick! hide under a table! Egh. I'm not looking for a DoomGuy "kill everything that moves style of game", just the ability to defend yourself if need be is enough for me

I love how they perfectly nailed that early 90's technology and setting as well. Really can't wait for this game and i'll likely buy an oculus just for it.
That video was so good..
Seems like survival horror is back in all its glory, or at least it's desperately trying to. 3 hours are fine as long as the game is well done (unlike Slender, a wasted opportunity, imo).
Shame the defensive weapon is actually pretty neutered
Off topic but the word "neutered" in this discussion means you think it's weak/underpowered or some such right? I'm just curious as I always try to learn words I don't normally use.
Yeah, I mean weak/underpowered/limited. According to the developer, you get two batteries and one of which is for powering the actual scanner itself. You can fire twice but then you need to find more batteries before you can even use the scanner, etcetera, I get it.. I'm just not keen on it. I kind of liked the idea of having something to defend yourself with :\
As I said earlier, I don't want a pewpew "kill 'em all, Rambo!" title - just the ability to defend yourself without having to run and hide under tables
Yes. Please remake SS2 with that engine. Please, please, please...
