From Dust is the upcoming sandbox simulator by legendary designer Eric Chahi. The PC, Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network title sees you playing the roll of a god-like spirit as you reshape the environment how you see fit in order to protect a group of villagers.

The most striking and attention grabbing aspect of From Dust is easily the stunning art direction. Our latest -- and exclusive -- look runs us through what inspired the world and the characters of From Dust.

Check out Jonathan Holmes's preview of From Dust for more on the game.

Confusing, isn't there also another game related to EVE called "Dust"?

I've got some of the concept art for this game on my wall.
I printed it out when i worked at a sign shop. 3 feet by 2 feet or so.
Can't wait to play it!

This does look very cool. The African tribe theme going on is tight.

Xbl/psn? Damn, was I not paying attention. I was under the assumption that this was going to be a $50 pc only game. I'm glad ill be able to play it, though these strategy/birds eye view type games are always better to play on pc :(

Does this game also remind anyone else of Black & White? It just seems like it's B&W w/out the kooky giant animal.

@El Punto,

"need more brown"

Obviously you were watching the wrong video. This game looks about as colorful as they get.

Thanks for making such a cool project. I've been checking the site for the Windows version, but I never left a comment about it. I know you are working hard and doing it for free so you shouldn't feel rushed or anything.
