Another World Creator's World-Morphing 'Spiritual Heir to Populous' Project Dust Unveiled
Ubisoft has announced a "spiritual heir to Populous" codenamed
Project Dust will grant players the power to dynamically alter a simulated world to "help their people resist, expand and migrate so they can accomplish their quest to find a safe place," says Chahi.
"Players will be able to manipulate ground, water, vegetation, lava as if playing sandcastles on the beach," he explains. "Breaching a lake open, digging craters, flooding valleys... And all this is simulation, not just graphics visualization."
Developed by Ubisoft Montpellier, Project Dust is currently scheduled for a downloadable release on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in Spring 2011.
The remastered version of Chahi's Another World is available on GOG for $9.99.
