StreumOnStudio’s Source-driven shooter E.Y.E may have a ludicrous name, but this cyberpunk-flavored shooter with roleplaying features might be a surprising little indie hit. We have two new trailers for the game (yanked from RPS) and I'm rather intrigued.
E.Y.E promises shooting action, hacking and RPG elements with some pretty deep and involving menus. An interesting balance between fiddly micromanagement and balls-to-the-wall action that could go horribly wrong, but might just succeed.
It has a heavy smell of Deus Ex around it, and that's probably not a bad thing. Check out the vids and let us know what you think.

Almost too dark but I think that has more to do with the lights in this room. Looks interesting. Really like the armor in the still shot, hope that is in the game somehow. Maybe an antagonist. Reminds me of Warhammer 40K. I'd try a demo of that.
"It's going to be an eye for an E.Y.E."
Really StreumOn? This s the best you can come up with? Dayum.
In other news, it looks pretty interesting. Call me a freak but I have a thing for millions of menus and customisation opions in my games. Even if I do just play the same stealth/mid-range character in every game.

That was before Rev. Anthony left and Podtoid went on hiatus. I miss those days even though the new Podtoid cast is random and awesome as hell.

The super high jumps and double sword kills are awesome looking though.
