Some HD Capsized Screens

Capsized release is near, and we decided to give some new screens to show off the higher resolution Capsized. Capsized can now go up to 1920×1080 resolution, which looks pretty damn amazing with a good monitor.

Alientrap is a game developer based in Saskatoon Saskatchewan. We started as an online open source group of developers in 2002 with the production of the freeware game Nexuiz, but have since turned into an indie development studio with the development of Capsized, in development solely by the programming / artist pair Lee Vermeulen and Jesse McGibney.
