Gonintendo has received a press release from Elephant Games, announcing that they have at last become an authorized developer for the Nintendo DS. The developer has unveiled its first project for the handheld, entitled Way in Dusk. The game is a third-person shooter/adventure presented in Cell-shaded 3D. Let me tell ya… this one is interesting, and in more than one way. Here’s a clip from the press release explaining why:

“In Way In Dusk, you assume the role of a guardian angel, St.John, who is a loyal employee of the Special Department of Heaven Office. You’re a very special being, able to shift between the Real and Astral worlds. You were sent to an obscure place called the Hollow City. It is a post-nuclear city infected with sorcery. Dreadful monsters, mutated from humans and cars inhabit this odd place. Within the city lies a great threat which you should discover and eliminate at all cost. On your way to accomplish the mission, you’ll visit all dark corners of the city and discover many of its wicked secrets. The intriguing storyline will surprise you with several twists and in the end the hero will have to make the fatal choice between Life and Death.”

While the game looks very cool, this definitely sounds like an oddball story. I’m definitely enticed to see more. The press release furthers to say that the game has reached the alpha stage of development, and will be “released soon.”
