Unigine Corp. has announced that the global war for oil in the flooded post-apocalyptic world of Oil Rush will start January 25, 2012 on Mac, Linux, and Windows PCs. The real-time naval strategy game combines elements of classic real time strategy titles with the action of tower defense games.

Oil Rush is an Indie real-time naval strategy game based on group control, that combines strategic challenge of classic RTS with sheer fun of Tower Defense, and features state-of-an-art visuals. Gameplay in ‘Oil Rush’ is easy to learn but hard to master and offers variety of different strategies for each map. Thousands of people, who pre-ordered Oil Rush, already got access to Beta version of the game and mastering their multiplayer skills – so join up and get ready for the big oil war in January!

UNIGINE would also like to remind that it’s the last week of UNIGINE Engine super-offers for Indie game developers. If you would like for your Indie game to shine don’t miss the opportunity. Royalty-free, unlimited number of developers per project… If you think your game will be successful that’s clearly the best terms you can get.

‘A lot of Indie games are incredibly fun and full of fresh game design ideas, however in many cases graphics in these games is not that impressive and I think the stereotype right now, especially with game publishers, is that Indie games can’t look great. We at UNIGINE are committed to break this stereotype with ‘Oil Rush’ and great offers for Indie game developers willing to get a powerful game engine, which will allow them to fully unleash their talent’  - said Anton Ravin, Managing Director, UNIGINE Corp. Europe.

Hopefully they'll be making the Mac versions of their benchmarks publicly available soon. There aren't many graphically intensive benchmarks that are broadly cross-platform compatible, so they will definitely be very useful in seeing how OS X stacks up against Windows and Linux. I believe Unigine engine also requires Lion because it uses OpenGL 3.2, which may be a first. Maybe a good reference on how mature the new OpenGL 3.2 path is and how RAGE will fair if/when it comes to Mac.
