Danish developer Zeropoint Software are still hard at work on their self-proclaimed "Triple-A indie" title Interstellar Marines, continuing with their unorthodox method of releasing small proof-of-concept samplers of the game to generate interest and spur pre-orders.
The latest trailer offers some good insight into their ethos and process, offering a further taste of gameplay action, explaining what they want the strengths of the game to be and asking the community "Will you Believe?".

No release date has still been set for Interstellar Marines, however the fifth free preview chapter is expected soon and will include multiplayer gameplay. More info is available over on the

Interesting though. I like that they are trying a different business model, it's refreshing.
Unfortunately the game doesn't really do it for me. He didn't sell it to me as any different to any other FPS (even though he said he was going to at the start). It looked pretty samey too from the visuals.
It was missing that one "f*****g awesome!" clincher, whether it be a story or some kind of battle item or move (e.g., 'active cover' in Breach), or whatever. I think for the model to work that's what was required in these movies begging for dev cash.

I'm over space / interstellar / sub orbit / galaxy marines.
What about a group of recently unemployed factory workers
or a squad of rookie policemen
or a gang of death row psycho paths
or even s contingent of street tough strippers?
(the shark on legs looks pretty sweet though)
