AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! A Reckless Disregard For Gravity announced @ Gaming Target

News: Greatest. Title. Ever.

Sometimes a game's title means very little (does the word "Halo" convey anything all by its lonesome?) and sometimes a title can be a thing of beauty by itself. That's where Dejobaan Games and their game AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! A Reckless Disregard For Gravity come in.

AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! takes the sport of BASE Jumping (short for Building, Antenna, Span, Earth) and makes it even more extreme by adding scoring rings, floating buildings, an electromagnetic harpoon gun (think Spider-Man) and the ability to moon, flip-off or give a thumbs-up to spectators on the way down (and get bonus points for it!).

Set entirely in the first person, the game (Aaaaa! for short) certainly has a set of characters behind the development process (they also created of one of our favorite games from 2007, The Wonderful End of the World):

How late can you deploy your chute before you end up a squishy bag of broken bones? How far can you trust your helmet's proximity meter before you splatter against a window like a bug on a highway? Do you believe the game's developers when they tell you that listening to your Enya CD will relax you and help you coast with more control... or should you just put on Limp Bizkit and throw caution to the wind?

Dejobaan plans to release the game this Summer and has posted three prototype videos at their official site. The first can be found right here:

We will definitely have more on AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! soon.
