THE GOAL:
The goal of Project: Prime is to recreate the hit GameCube game, Metroid Prime, in HD using the power of Crytek's CryENGINE 2.'
THE GAME:
Metroid Prime is the first 3D Metroid game released on November 15, 2002. It was developed by Nintendo-owned Retro Studios and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo GameCube. It is officially classified by Nintendo as a first-person adventure, rather than a first-person shooter, due to the large exploration component to the game. It was also the first Metroid game to be released since Super Metroid, which was released nearly eight years earlier, though this only applies to North America as in all other markets, it was released after Metroid Fusion.
Metroid Prime was the first of the four part Prime storyline, which takes place between the original Metroid and Metroid II: Return of Samus. The title was later bundled with the GameCube in 2004. Like the rest of the series, Metroid Prime has a science fiction setting, once again allowing you to play as the bounty hunter Samus Aran. The story follows Samus battling the Space Pirates and their biological experiments on planet Tallon IV.
Project: Orpheon
In Project Prime, we are aiming for a darker, more mechanical feel, as was seen in the E3 showing from Retro. Orpheon now has no global lighting, and what lights it has are faded and dim from the destruction caused by the parasites.
