It would be nice if that demo was more exciting. Also, the detail on the terrain (in the first minute) leaves much to be desired.

But it's a much higher quality demo than Euclideon IMO, from a technical standpoint.

I think the videos on the Atomontage channel show something I can actually see being a game, for example it shows destructible environments and terrain deformation, editing tools, and clever use of simulated DoF and a gameplay perspective that plays to the strengths and hides some of the weaknesses of the tech.

I could see it being great for a hybrid-RTS game like Ground Control, or some kind of god-game.
