New Luminous Engine by Square Enix

Tech Demo of the new Luminous Engine by Square Enix. Will be released on Xbox 360, PC, PS3 and PSVita. More Info: Square Enix’s Luminous Studio is a multi-platform engine designed for HD game development, that can work with any hardware that supports programmable shaders.
