Indie Game Exam Question 2 (Gaming)

The only game created by this short lived indie studio. Name the game and the studio.

Hint: Unlike most indie games, this one was technically stunning on release.

In that respect, the prize is a somewhat recent indie game that may tax your computer.

Mmm. Preferred the previous exam question, because it was based more upon critiquing/defending your critique.

Stunning upon release, because of its technical merits? Only release by the studio, which then closed down?

I'm going to guess... Gunmetal, by Mad Genius Software. Founded 1995, dissolved four years later.
Gunmetal was a PC FPS with realistic lighting and partial reflections for water, pretty good for a 1998 release. It also had a digital soundtrack and a sci-fi setting, which matches up with the soundbite you provided.
