New Australian Company - It's good to find support!! – whiteknight

whiteknight Member Posts: 14 From: Perth, Western Australia, Australia Registered: 08-11-2005	Hi all! My name is Mitchell Nunis, and i represent a new computer games company all the way from Australia! We were in attendance at the recent Christian Games Developer Conference and i believe that i may have met some of you already (hi guys!!). I had no idea of this site until now, and would like to contribute in our efforts of advancing this industry which up until now has not had the exposure it deserves =( We've currently developing the PC platform title 'Timothy & Titus: Saints, Martyrs, Heroes' and was hoping to get some feedback, and comments! Feel free to shoot some ideas, pose questions or just drop me an email for a chat! We would also love to have your support and get ways and means that we can help support other developers out there! God Bless! Mitchell Nunis www.whiteknightgames.com

whiteknight Member Posts: 14 From: Perth, Western Australia, Australia Registered: 08-11-2005	I thought it was you!! Thanks for the support and compliments!! We're just in the process of taking all the suggestions on board, to make sure that Timothy and Titus fulfills expectations and excites those that play it! Mitchell Nunis www.whiteknightgames.com
HanClinto Administrator Posts: 1828 From: Indiana Registered: 10-11-2004	Very cool! I can't wait 'till the playable demo -- I'm practically shorting out my keyboard with drool. (not really, but I am really looking forward to this). I think it would be fantastic to see something like Timothy and Titus get ported to a console -- wow -- isn't the future exciting? And the best part is knowing that He holds it in His hands, and it will all work for the good of those that love Him. --clint ------------------ http://www.includingjudas.com/christiangame.html
whiteknight Member Posts: 14 From: Perth, Western Australia, Australia Registered: 08-11-2005	Haha! That would be a sight (your drooling over the keyboard!) And as you say, it's in His hands. We hope and pray that we can make the breakthrough for other projects that will be released after Timothy and Ttus! I will definitely keep you posted on the developments! Have YOU signed up for our newsletter? http://whiteknightgames.com/newsletter.html BTW, watch our space in the coming weeks - some exciting stuff coming up! (it's my turn to drool in anticipation! ;P) Mitchell Nunis White Knight Games

Welcome to CNN btw! ------------------ I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.
whiteknight Member Posts: 14 From: Perth, Western Australia, Australia Registered: 08-11-2005	Thanks on both accounts! BTW, did you mean CCN? or do we have coverage on CNN as well? Mitchell Nunis www.whiteknightgames.com
GUMP Member Posts: 1335 From: Melbourne, FL USA Registered: 11-09-2002	I'm just curious, did you license an engine or develop an in-house engine? Have you been over to the ICGDA site? www.icgda-portal.org

AmazingJas Member Posts: 437 From: Sydney, NSW, AUSTRALIA Registered: 04-03-2003	Hiya WhiteKnight, Your product seems to have a lot of potential and the gfx certainly give it an air of respectability too. I am a fellow Aussie, and am quite keen to make my own Christian-themed game at some point, hopefully as my next project. I've created about 8 games so far, and the last few I think have turned out quite decent but they are all entirely secular. I'm really struggling to think up a game concept which allows me to strike a balance that keeps a game Christian, yet also allows for fun and enjoyment (which is my own perception of what a 'game' should be). I am really looking forward to seeing how it (T&T) turns out and if you ever want to talk turkey about the local Aussie scene, let me know...I actually almost got a local Christian coders type network happening at one point, but it didn't stick. The pity is, up until a few months ago, I was a writer for Australia's premier gaming magazine...I could have gained you a bit of exposure. In any case, all the best, and look forward to hearing of your progress.
Gamer4Christ Member Posts: 551 From: Kokomo, Indiana, USA Registered: 07-19-2005	In my opinion, and probably many if not all of the people here, I think there is needs to be ALOT more companies like WhiteKnight Games. I think it is awesome what you are trying to do. I cannot wait for T&T to come out, it would be a definite product to buy regardless of age range, lol. Keep of the good work!
GUMP Member Posts: 1335 From: Melbourne, FL USA Registered: 11-09-2002	If I'm not mistaken White Knight is made up of less than 10 people. If that is the case, instead of having a bunch of tiny developers spring up I would think it better if companies like White Knight were to grow and become more competitive with mainstream developers. The history of the mainstream industry has been that of consolidation through mergers so I don't expect the Christian industry to be any different.

whiteknight Member Posts: 14 From: Perth, Western Australia, Australia Registered: 08-11-2005	Hi Guys! Thanks for all your suggestions, compliments and queries! It's so positive to gather feedbacck like this! TO answer your questions... GUMP: we have licensed an engine, Cipher. I'm not actually part of the technical development team, so excuse me for my lack of knowledge on this topic And you are correct on the size of our development team. It's optimised for our T&T project, with slightly less than a dozen people on board. We are hoping to grow from the T&T title - it's only with support from people like all of yous that we will be able to achieve that! AMAZINGJAS: Hey it's great to meet a fellow Aussie here, and we would love to hear your ideas on T&T, or just discuss for the sake of it! Wow, perhaps we could someone organise to gear up the Christian Coders network for Australia as well! It's great to hear your opinions and support for T&T! Will you be at the Australian Game Developers Conference in December? BTW, we're trying to get a forum going on our site as well - so if you're interested sign up and help us build that community! www.whiteknightgames.com/forums or if you want to keep up to date with the latest developments - sign up for our newsletter at www.whiteknightgames.com/newsletter.html We've got a but of details coming out soon - just a matter of finalising a few aspects!!

I'd probably feel quite out of place I would love however to get along to the next Free Play Indie dev conference.
