Indie dev remaking Descent with modern graphics, sound
Though the game has languished in recent years, freeform first-person shooter Descent is finally getting a fancy, fan-made reboot, courtesy of “Madmax1998.” Madmax is using the Unreal Engine 3 to bring the original game’s “six degrees of freedom” (the ability to orient and move in any direction, abbreviated as “6DOF”) fully into the modern graphical era. While previous remakes and modifications like DXX have focused on improving the original’s graphics by bolting 3D acceleration onto the original game’s source code, Madmax’s remake is a full engine replacement.
