Ignore the furries, this game is made in XNA.  That is ridiculous.

The game is called Dust: Elysian Tail. Heard about it on Listen Up.

    game looks like if Disney made God of War during the 2-D era, which is not a bad thing at all, and the graphics look beautiful, let alone for a XNA game. Very interesting. These guys are going to be picked up by someone fast.

    Apparently it's supposed to be based on an upcoming movie just called Elysian Tail, but I can't find enough info on it. Everything seems pretty tightly sealed until they announce a release date...

    Wow step back Muramasa this is one of the most gorgeous 2D games I've ever seen. Really hope it gets some sales unlike most games on Indie Games.

    Games, movies, etc used to have humanoid animals in them back in my day without being called 'Furry'. (See, at the least, Starfox.)

    Peh, whatev. Seems like a petty reason to pass up such an awesome looking game.

    I don't understand the hype behind this. Looks so derivative.

    It looks really nice for a xbla community game. I just hope people won't ignore it because the characters are furries.

    Anyone who passes this up because of the whole "furry" bullsh*t might as well pass up on any other good game that doesn't feature humans as main characters. Either way, looks really good for an indie game.

    Very good-looking game, especially for XNA. Wonderful job. And I think the furries add a sort of delightful charm to it. Definitely picking this one up!

    wow, that is really impressive for an indie game. Pretty much looks as visually impressive as many commercial xbox live arcade games, maybe even better than some. I am not entirely sure what the story would play out like, but the visuals and animation are certainly beautiful to behold.

    I love how the anthropomorphics or "furries"(just call them cartoon characters) is frequently appearing in games, thats one of the reasons I like the ratchet & clank games. I'm a huge fan of the anthros and I draw them all the time, so that has shifted my interest in the positive direction. Anyway, the game looks beautiful with the art-style they've used, the characters looks interesting, the combat looks over-the-top and fun. mirumasa is similar, but I dislike anime/manga, I'm getting this game instead.

    the reason i will probably pass it up for the 'furry bullsh*t' is because I know the people who like that kind of stuff and I dont want to support them. Plus any furry lover would make the story line sh*t anyway.

    I didn't know Vanillaware was making XBLA games. Shame they changed their portrait designer.

    I really like the art style in this game, it shows that its not the tools you are working with but how much effort you put in that counts.

    How does being a "furry" lover interfere with storymaking? And theres no point in straight up offending the people who likes the [quote] "furry bullsh*t", I mean, what "kind of stuff" are you talking about? they're just some f**king cartoon characters. Please Captain, make me understand your dislike.

    well you basically said it yourself, "f*cking cartoon characters," is why I hate them, plus i dont mind offending furry lovers, their fuggin' weird, they're people who fall in love with fictional animal people, or they dress up like them, and I know not all are into the "f*cking" part, but I think the ones who say they don't secretly do, I don't trust 'em.

    So if I didn't like Anime/manga, I could go on one of Davids idolmasters posts or whatever and spread my hatemails all over, telling everyone that theyre weird, and what they like is complete bullsh*t, I don't, cuz I respect other persons even though they like something I don't like at all. So even though someone likes something you don't, you don't have to trash someone cuz of that. Most of us are well respected artists. And I agree that the fursuiters are a little creepy, but thats such a small part anyway. I'm not trying to make you change your thoughts, I'm just trying to defend a part of my hobby, which I'm tired of people trashing everywhere.

    I know the "f**king cartoon characters came out wrong(I didn't mean cartoon characters, f**king) I meant that theyre only cartoon characters, ffs.

    I'm gonna stop now..
