It’s at times like this you want to manufacture a rivalry. Claim there’s some battle for the heart of the left-of-centre first-person game between the Chilean Champion Zeno Clash and the Russian Rumbler Tension. But that’d be terribly irresponsible. We’ll make do with noting that the Source-powered game have provided four new images showing off its warped fantasy vision of enormous nostrilled beasts and couples lying around in bed. More grabs beneath the cut.
And you can also discuss how much you’d like to stroke the furry creature’s hair over at their recently launched forum.

four new screens I assume you mean. I thought the teaser trailer looke da bit rubbish, but it’s early days.

KG is old skool. “Grabs” because we called them “screen grabs” back in the magazine years.

Well what about
“have provided four new games showing off its warped fantasy”
Still, that third game looks gorgeous. How did they make the fur? Is it just a texture or does it use witchery to move?

If I was being real petty I’d point out the last game only has one person in the bed and not a couple.
But would you just look at that fur.

Look again. There’s a guy in there, he just blends in to the background.

Does that chair in the last picture have a giant snake coming out of its trowsers? Wat a strange game!

Please be good.
At worst this game ought to save people a fortune on hallucinogenics.

Saw this on destructoid this morning and thought to myself: “I wonder when RPS will pick this one up.”

Whoooa, I’m freaking out, man!
I think this is one of the first games in the Acid Trip-genre.
From what I’ve gathered the gameplay is (mostly?) First-Person Melee,
which can be pretty kick-ass when done right. …mostly.
