The lovely folks at Vlambeer (makers of the brilliantSuper Crate BoxandRadical Fishing) sent me the latest trailer for their upcoming addition to theSerious Samlegacy, which takes the fast-paced, backwards-running action of the first-person shooter and twists it into a retro-RPG. Allistair Pinsoffgot hookedon the combination and I’m expecting it to be a hell of a lot of fun to play.

Serious Sam: The Random Encounterwill release on October 24th for Steam for a mere $4.99. It’s Vlambeer’s first commercial effort and I’m really pulling for them because this looks charming as hell.
