Developer Spotlight: Torus Games
« on: June 09, 2010, 01:47:23 PM »
In the volatile world we live in, it's always cool to see  companies survive for a long time and remain passionate about what they do. The  Melbourne, Australia-based developer Torus Games is a company that's been able  to do that. Beginning in 1994, Torus has made more than 90 games, but their  latest, Kid Adventures: Sky Captain, due out on June 15, is the first game that  was created and developed by them.

"Other games we have designed and got out,  but all of those have been funded by Take Two or Nokia, etc.," said Kevin  McIntosh, Head of Production. "This was a first where we bet on ourselves,  built the game and got it out. After 16 years, it's nice to say we have  contributed that to the industry and we're going to look for ways to do more of  the same."

Neal 3rd paragraph there is a typo. I think you mean by not my when talking about Torus games ownership.

Other than that great read it is nice to see some of the history of certain development houses.

I'm happy with thinking pokepal148 is just eating a stick of butter. It seems about right for him. I don't need no stinking facts.
