]]> 14 Apr 2007 08:27:43 You, the player, using your own name and gender, play the character of a longtime friend of Grace and Trip, an attractive and materially successful couple in their early thirties. During an evening get-together at their apartment that quickly turns ugly, you become entangled in the high-conflict dissolution of Grace and Trip's marriage. No one is safe as the accusations fly, sides are taken and irreversible decisions are forced to be made. By the end of this intense one-act play you will have changed the course of Grace and Trip's lives - motivating you to re-play the drama to find out how your interaction could make things turn out differently the next time.

]]> 04 Dec 2006 10:55:41 The world of Darwinia is a virtual themepark, running entirely inside a computer network and populated by a sentient evolving life form called the Darwinians.

]]> 02 Dec 2006 03:37:52 Project Twilight Blades is an RPG, yes. But it will play a lot differently than most others out there. For instance, instead of a typical turn-based system, this will be an active time battle system. Also, much like an MMO, there are no random battles, you approach what you want to fight, or find a way to avoid it. The difference is that most of the game will be local, but the main cities will be online. This will allow you to trade and communicate with other players while in town. There will also be options to communicate with others in field, more on that will be released at a later time. Keep an eye out for more information as it is released!

]]> 23 Nov 2006 12:10:16 Vespers3D is Orange River Studio's first experiment into a new genre of computer gaming, 3D Interactive Fiction (3D/if). It is adapted from the text-based interactive fiction game Vespers, by Jason Devlin.

Vespers, the text IF game, won numerous awards in recent interactive fiction competitions, including first place at the 2005 IFComp and "Best Game" and "Best Writing" (among others) at the 2006 XYZZY awards. Now Jason has joined Orange River Studio in our attempt to bring Vespers to life in 3D, while maintaining the richness of the original text version.

You can play the online Java version of Vespers here.
