This is very exciting! The guys over at High Voltage Software have just announced a project in the works for the Wii. This new game is called The Conduit, but more importantly is the fact that they have created a new engine from the ground-up for this game, named Quantum3.

Features:

  • Dynamic bump-mapping
  • Reflection and refraction
  • Light / shadow maps
  • Projected texture lights
  • Specular and Fresnel effects
  • Emissive and iridescent materials
  • Advanced alpha blends
  • Light beams / shafts
  • Gloss and detail mapping
  • Interactive water with dual-wave channels
  • Heat distortion and motion blur

Among other things. This game is already looking to be one of the most graphically-impressive titles on the Wii, and it doesn’t even have a publisher yet. Let’s hope that greatness comes from these guys. I’ve got my fingers crossed.

    And they say that the Wii doesn’t have good graphics.

    Hope this is true and people from EA/Ubi will invest in it (instead of create “suck” bunny games)
