Saturnine Tenshi Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 SURGE CONCERTO: CIEL NO SURGE Platform: Playstation Vita Genre: Realtime Life Simulation Developer(s): Gust Release Date: April 26th, 2012 Official Website(JPN): http://surge-concerto.com/ciel/ Information: The game has been in development for half a year. But if you include the time the world view has been in planning, it's about 15 years. Vita was chosen as the hardware because it best matches the game's concept. Also, the system's 3G capabilities may have been a deciding factor. Character designs are from Flight Unit's Ntny. However, illustrations are from someone else, someone who apparently does his own 3D model work. They decided on the game's voice staff by auditioning 100 people (I'm not sure if this is just for heroine Ion's voice or for the entire cast). They want players to feel that they are one person in the world of Ciel nosurge. Players should look forward to the game's vocal songs (I'm not sure if this is just the theme song, or if the game has a more robust vocal component) You'll be able to show off your Ion to other players. Source The game is headed by the director of Ar tonelico. I'll add more later. Just updating to make a real thread out of it. Screenshots Full gallery here.

Saturnine Tenshi Posted January 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Eh, hard to tell anything with the horrible quality. Not sure if that's thanks to the game or the video. There's something that flashes across the screen, but I don't feel like picking apart the flash right now. http://www.genomirai.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SixTwoSixFour Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 I hate ARGs and guessing games. When they want to give us information, I'll be listening, but until then, I wish they'd shut up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturnine Tenshi Posted January 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 There's information. I was actually telling Kovach I need to update this thread into a dedicated info-thread last night. Just have been too busy to get around to it.

Saturnine Tenshi Posted March 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 I haven't really been keeping up with this one because there's a whole DLC strategy behind the thing, but it is in many ways a very Ar tonelico game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=WFrFk3BRuas Even has Akiko Shikata singing.

WTF Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 It still looks alright and does definitely feel like an Ar Tonelico game with more sim elements. I'm much more interested in the new gamearts games now though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
