Bungie Aerospace has launched its first game today since establishing their new indie publishing label. It's called Crimson: Steam Pirates and is now available for free on the iPad.
Crimson was developed by an indie developer called Harebrained Schemes in association with Bungie Aerospace, a sub-label developed by Halo developers Bungie to help indie devs get their projects off the ground.
The lead designer on the project was none other than Jordan Weisman, who created the Battletech, MechWarrior, Crimson Skies, and Shadowrun universes.
As might be obvious from the title, the game takes place in a sort of steampunk universe full of pirates. It's a strategy game in which you set out on "voyages" controlling a fleet of ships, subs, and zepellins in naval battle.
You can check out the video below for a more detailed introduction, or just grab the free title on iTunes.
