Faith and a .45 devs toss their ideas around about the game

Earlier we introduced you to a new game on the rise from Denmark developers Deadline Games called Faith and a .45 -- a Bonnie and Clyde type of tale. Cross-country mayhem, crooked cops, you know. 1UP has gotten a more in-depth preview of the game and we're pretty interested in what was covered. You control Luke, with Ruby as your AI-controlled partner -- but a second player online or offline can take control of her at any time. The two work dynamically: if Luke does a good job, Ruby will offer him a kiss for a job well done (and if he dies but Ruby lives, she'll give him a kiss that magically brings him back to life). Other cooperative moves were mentioned, but it's up to you to read them.

A sheriff named Duke plays a role sort of like Nemesis from Resident Evil 3 -- constantly hunting down the protagonists on their journey across the country. Boss battles will exist, but come in the form of a tank or an area swamped with well-trained baddies instead of one super-powered gun-toting maniac. You can upgrade your weapons, puzzles will be physics-based (sorry, wooden box puzzle lovers) and a narrative that goes beyond scripted cut-scenes. Perhaps branching stories based on your choices, but the early development cycle allows the devs to figure all that out later. It's a 2009 or 1
