EE 2009: BRINK Developer Session

brink

BRINK Game Director Paul Wedgewood from Splash Damage took some time out of his busy schedule to put on a developer session every day of Eurogamer Expo this year. I caught the final session on Saturday. What was on display was pretty awesome.

BRINK is about the last known bastion of civilization in 2045 known as the Ark. Originally built as an experimental habitat shit has happened that has made it a permanent habitat for the past 20 years. In that time the original citizens survived and reproduced and taken on refugees, growing the population beyond the intent of the Ark. Refugees have taken up homes in Container City, a place previously reserved only for storage. The imbalances of society have caused some to rise up, placing the Ark on the BRINK of civil war. There are two sides to this war (as is normally the case), refugees and the police. The refugees see themselves as rebels, fighting for equality. The security force are just doing their jobs, viewing the troublesome refugees as borderline terrorists.
