Now this came literally out of nowhere. Campo Santo Productions has just released the debut trailer and screenshots for its upcoming PC exclusive title, Firewatch. Firewatch is a single-player first-person video game where you, as a man named Henry, explore the Wyoming wilderness after taking a summer job as a fire lookout.
Firewatch is being developed by Campo Santo, a new independent video game studio in San Francisco.
“This is Campo’s first game, but its members have made some games you might’ve enjoyed, including Mark of the Ninja, Brutal Legend, The Cave, Bioshock II, and The Walking Dead: Season 1.”
Firewatch is powered by the Unity engine. As the team noted, along with other tools for various purposes, the game world is making use of SECTR Complete— an excellent piece of Unity streaming middleware developed by Nathan Martz.
Enjoy!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

That looks amazing. In a way it reminds me of Dear Esther.
This is… weirdly interesting.
I think it’s because of that “last night” mystery that they were talking about ?
It kinda remembers me the movie “Moon” for some reason. O.o
Also the “hot” scenery plus the mystery setting “tickles” me differently. Now that I’ve watched and read stuff on their site, I’m genuinely excited.
The Forest 2 Cell Shading Editon xD
Kinda tired of all these fp adventures. Many of them have interesting ideas and look beautiful but the genre went from non-existent to “not another one” in just 2 years after Amnesia. The most promising for me is Ethan Carter though.
Too much red and yellow for my taste, I prefer blue and green.
Looks great .
The animations (and fat hands) remind me of something out of a Pixar movie.
Also, a screenshot of that video is now my desktop wallpaper 🙂
“Campo Santo Productions” your game is super gorgeous, and take my money (i don’t have much but still i’m willing to give it to you)
Another interesting indie game.
