Is Firefall targeting Ouya?

From Eurogamer.net

Outspoken ex-World of Warcraft lead and CEO of Firefall developer Red 5 Studios Mark Kern has railed against current consoles and remains skeptical of their successors, yet he's interested in developing for Ouya.

So, now you are asking yourself "Ok, but What is Firefall?"

It's an Online futuristic FPS.. in cel shading!
If you don't know what cel shading is.. in short it's a graphic technique used to mimic the style of cartoons or comic books (as you can see in the pictures below)
But stop digressing.

Here the game features:
  • Explore a massive open world with hundreds of other players fighting to push back the Melding and save humanity.
  • Change your equipment on the fly to play different battleframes depending on what your need is at that moment.
  • Collect resources and use them to expand your technology or craft new equipment to help in your fight for survival.
  • Compete head to head against other players and armies to prove your dominance in competitive arenas. 
  • Join your friends online. Form armies to work towards common goals. Enjoy the benefits of a social, online game. 

As in team fortress you can choose your class (in this game you choose the battleframe.. the only difference is that you can change battleframe during the match).

At the moment there are 5 battleframes.
  1. Recon
  2. Engineer
  3. Dreadnaught
  4. Biotech (medic)
  5. Assault
Having seen various videos I think it's a mix with Unreal Tournament, a little of Team fortress and Tribes Vengeance (yes you can fly!).. but without vehicles...
Damn.. i like trains vehicles.

I would like to point out the similarity between these two creatures

The first lives in firefall's world and the second.. do you remember where it lives? (..aaah.. sweet memories..)
