Last time we talked about Antichamber it was called Hazard: The Journey of Life, which means we’ve never specifically talked about Antichamber. Hazard was a non-commercial Unreal mod whereas Antichamber is a UDK-developed game that should be out before the end of the year. It’s a first person puzzler, or a “mind-bending psychological exploration game”, with a striking art style. The version shown off at PAX this week appears to be close to finished. For those of us who’ve been following development for the last couple of years, this is all rather exciting. Why? Stay a while and listen.

(Which also instructs you to read itself…) Anyway, worth taking a look.
