sciencefiction:These are fictional magazine covers from Blade Runner. They were created by production illustrator Tom Southwell in 1980-1981 and appeared in the background on a magazine stand in the city streets. (!!!!)

Hilarious fan art from our friend Ken Garing! Look for Ken’s debut comic series “Planetoid” due out in June.

[We’re] working on technology that will allow you to download the game’s client while you play the game through Gaikai, meaning you can start playing the game instantly, then switch over to your local client after you’ve played a few training missions. Given that the game is coming to PC and Mac, Hawken will not only set new standards for platform compatibility, but manage to be completely free in the process.

Machinima chairman and CEO Allen DeBevoise said the firm is now “well-positioned to make the next evolutionary step” by “expanding into original content, international territories, and new platforms and devices.”

FPS Guru: With a small team, how has your experience been developing Hawken?

Jason Hughes: For starters, it really helps that we’re using Unreal Engine 3. It’s a proven engine, is easy to work with and it looks great. Fortunately we’re able to focus more time on design and content as a result. Epic makes it easy for small teams to get started by making the UDK (Unreal Development Kit) readily available to everyone and it’s where a good part of the initial game was created.

Hawken also has a very strong visual style that has proven to be invaluable in driving so many aspects of development. Having a clear picture of the game defined so early on is beyond helpful and everything that goes in the game has to fit within that visual parameter. Our creative director Khang Le really has an eye for what brings a world together and the entire team benefits by the fact that it’s so clear in his mind what the game should look, feel and play like. As a result, everyone works efficiently and doesn’t have to redo work again and again. Work fast, efficiently and try to reuse as many assets already created as possible. Think of it almost like a virtual kitbashing session where you empty tons of model pieces all over a table. Pick up some pieces over here, some over there and put them together in unique and interesting ways.
