I downloaded Dark Void Zero yesterday, from the DSI Store, and read about it being a so called "Lost Gem" from the late 80's. Is this true? It just seem like a publicity stunt for the Dark Void game coming out for 360/PS3.

The game feels actually like a demo, but it works, and it fun IMO. I am a sucker for anything 8-bit, and I got my five dollars worth out of it.

Please let me know if anyone knows anything about this this.

Thanks!

Is it the game where you fly using a rocket pack?

I downloaded the demo...it's ok, just not my type of game.

Plus, I really suck at shooters. I could never aim carefully.

It's not a lost gem. It was specifically designed to coincide with the release of Dark Void on 360/PS3. I figure they saw that Mega Man 9 did well with the retro style, why not try something new with it.

That was what I was thinking too. They even put a backstory on the help screen, and everything. I hate it when dev/publishers do things like this.
