Writer, Designer and Producer. Somewhere between 70 and 120 shipped titles for all major platforms. One of the chosen few working both AAA and Indie and not going nuts from doing so. Short Bio: Born in former CSSR in the 70ies, Ivan Ertlov grew up as Johann Ertl in Lower Austria. During grammar school, he managed to sell his first games (mostly adventures for C64) to DiscMags. In the mid-90ies, Ivan Ertlov was among the most infamous render artists in Austria with his shows "Welcome to the Cyberspace" and "Atomic City". After several years of studying, DJ-ing and journalism, with an obscure degree earned, Ivan became a teacher in Lower Austria. He managed to survive the kids and pupils for a whopping year before going back into media business as Online Writer for the JoWooD Group (Spellforce, Gothic, Giants). Later Community Manager, Game Designer, Head of Development, Producer. Still BOTH AAA producer (Anno, Hitman, MGC..) and Indie developer with "Homegrown Games".
Yeah, I did, and I can only recommend both workign for IO Interactive AND working in Copenhagen. Awesome team, great city, high standard of living.
And of course HITMAN !
Cool game! Followed!
Very impressive screenshots, and even more impressive game! keep it going!
Nope, not a puzzle game. Think more of a Walking simulator with some puzzles and lots of LSD visions!
33 Father's Island here, and 66 ITD in the giveayway before.
1. As stated below, guest votes don't count that much compared to members / trusted members one. I fully understand and support that approach.
2. There are certain hints that perhaps fans of us voted in a way that raised some flags. Scott explained that to me, and I understand the reasoning.
As said, all is good from our side and I don't want to complain here.
I have discussed this with Scott and we are good. All stay calm, there will be an IOTY 2017, too ;)
Hi Scott, I already replied and provided some evidence you might find useful.
Congratulations!
Not enough votes, perhaps?
Paradox *IS* independent in the very meaning of the word. And the games are still developed on a rather Indie budget.
AAA is perhaps a little exageerated ;)
Please keep calm and drink a beer (or tea or coffee).
We appreciate your support, but if we treat this like a contest, the golden rule applies: Never discuss with the judges ;)
Keep up the great work!
we are still playing around with several different light settings and skydomes, so that is nothing carved in stone.
The odd camo however is explained in the storyline and will stay (however, perhaps a little bit de-saturated
Are you satisfied now?!
No, we already know the release date.
Very good right now ^^
Yeah, and keep in mind:
- The game is only $5 on Steam
- There is a free demo, so you know if you like it before you buy
Why give it away a free demo then?
It is a *WEIRD* game
Word!
Yeah, thats the point of the demo!
It is.
ah, lol, NOW I got it ^^
Still some hours left.
Then get it! Either by GiveAway or the free demo or by actually buying it ;)
und schiach is er ah!
LOL, immer no ^^
A little bit. But that's perhaps just because of the monitor settings on your side.
Please check with the FREE Steam demo if your PC runs it fluently before joining the giveaway!
