Set in a dystopian future, Gemini Rue alternates between two characters--an ex-assassin seeking a defector and a hospital inmate who's been brain-wiped. The game seemed well worth keeping an eye on when I got to play a bit last year, plus it was a finalist in the 2010 Independent Games Festival Student Showcase, then named 'Boryokudan Rue.'

The downloadable edition of Gemini Rue can be pre-ordered for $14.99. A $24.99 CD edition with the MP3 soundtrack and "professional packaging" is also on offer; it won't ship until March but will give access to the downloadable edition when that launches.
