What kind of witchcraft is this?

What kind of witchcraft is this?

Seriously

those are some pretty rocks

dude bro guy. that is awesome.

This is massively impressive work.

I know it's a cliche thing to say but it really looks nothing like Source anymore.. more like Cryengine 2! Such amazing work, good luck with the release!

Very nice!

When do you think we could see some gameplay? I'm really curious to see what this game is all about.

Looking really really REALLY good.. especially for Source engine. Also can't wait to see some ingame "action".

Holy fuck, this is really impressive.

my jaw hit the flaw earlier at work when I saw this!

Just wow. Looks amazing. Looks twice amazing, considering its on souce engine (they might have updated it greatly since portal?).

Too bad its not a game, but still a great visual treat. I would love an adventure\puzzle game like Riven made with similar quality visuals.

those screenshot look like virtual paintings! from a really good painter!!

Great stuff, and the music really helps sell the atmosphere!
