Whatever happened to "I Am Alive"? - Games

Seriously, I remember seeing this game months ago and haven't heard heads or tails of it. The main website isn't even accessible anymore. For those who don't know the game, the trailer: [hd]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUStOdDrBw8[/hd][URL="http://youtube.com/watch?v=LUStOdDrBw8"][/URL]

If main website isn't accessible, I am 90% sure the game is no longer in development. Well, that part was obvious but whatever. :v:

Or they're renovating for new developments... This could get quite interesting.

The question should've been "Why did they cancel it" I guess :v: Damn shame, it sounded pretty cool.

wikerpediams says it was delayed until sometime this year

didn't Ubisoft said something last year about delaying it to Q4 2011-Q2 2012 so that the developer can make some major changes? not sure on it but I can recall something from an interview about it, anyways hope it isn't canceled because it seemed like an interesting survival game

It's been delayed again

if the game could talk, it would probably say it's name.

I am dead. Someone had to do it.

They renamed it, its now "I am dead" [editline]14th April 2011[/editline] Fucking Ninja.

It should probably be called "I am dead" now!

i guess it could be called "i am dead" lol

Isn't this the game where a bunch of guys are chasing the character for a bottle of water, but he sets a trap or whatever? It looks pretty cool.

A relative of mine was brought in to do story. He said it was in development hell.

Last I heard this was Jade Raymond's pet project. Something got screwed up in development and they were disappointed with the final product. It will now be released as a downloadable game instead of a full retail box game. I heard that sometime around the beginning of the year I think. I'll try and find a source. Edit: Looks like the article I was thinking about was a misunderstanding. [quote]UPDATE: Thanks to several readers who actually speak French it's become clear that the comment about Ubisoft not having faith in the game did not come from Jade Raymond but was simply the opinion of the JeuxVideo announcer. In response to inquiries, meanwhile, Ubisoft said only, "We have not recently announced anything for I Am Alive and we have nothing official to announce at this time."[/quote] [url]http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/107431-I-Am-Alive-Coming-This-Year-Exclusively-Digital-UPDATED[/url]

Not having faith? It's a post apoc chicago where you don't fight zombies, mutants or animals, BUT OTHER PEOPLE. This has the chance to be incredibly compelling like heavy rain but instead some producer or financial manager says "It's not a popular genre so we wont make it" This a major reason why I support indie devs.

It was canceled due to some studios shifting, budget problems, and some disinterest from higher-ups, according to GameInformer.

Sounds like the kind of game that would have been better suited as an indie project that spans many years like Overgrowth or NE or something.

[QUOTE=A B.A. Survivor;29164353]Damn, whatever happened to [I]that[/I] game?[/QUOTE] Nothing. They're releasing new material like every week.

The Game is still being made. but it isn't going to be a full release due to the fact that Ubisoft is afraid it will suck. It will be a XBL or PSN download

Man that game looks cool.

Well I guess we can call it ''I am Dead'' [editline]14th April 2011[/editline] :v:

What if it says "I got Better"?

Why would they cancel a game with such a good concept :saddowns:
