Meanwhile in Romania ...
... I'm selling these fine leather jackets!
Actually, no! I'm working on a game, and since my friend Neal and Subsim have always been good to me, I thought maybe people are interested? Its the first time I'm breaking the news Last December, after a short 1 year detour via City Interactive, I started work in earnest on a indie project. This is something I wanted to do for a while but with the wages of game development in Romania making no money in the bank and having a young one running around the house, it was hard to take the step. With me there are a couple of other guys, most notably and most committed, Pintea - the helpful dev that sometimes offers advice in the SH5 modding forums. Or at least he used to. So what are we building? A small strategy game, called Door Kickers. Right now (very WIP graphics and features missing) it kinda looks like this: Its inspiration comes from the original Rainbow Six games, specifically the planning mode in the pre-Lockdown games. Get a situation, plan the assault, see how it plays out. Fast playing in some levels, but involving in order to get it right. Very satisfying stuff. Of course, we have a few tricks up our sleeves as there's plenty of room to improve on the original. Also as counter-terrorism is a fave subject of mine and I have a few contacts in the domain, I'd say that given time we'll be able to shape this into a pretty deep, realistic tactical sandbox. If you've enjoyed games such as Jagged Alliance, XCom, Frozen Synapse, you might find ours interesting, though we're definitely not on the same creative page as any of them. So I guess this would be it for now. Cheers, Dan P.S. You can keep in touch with us over Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/KillHouseGames or maybe we'll actually manage to have a real site up soon http://www.inthekillhouse.com/

Yes. I used to plan and run the missions in Rogue Spear and Raven Shield all the time. It was my favorite part of those two games. Color me very, very interested.

It doesn't look like an indie. More like a kick-ass game with several million dollars behind it.

I loved the old Rainbow Six games. I still have the original with Eagle Watch, Rouge Spear Black Thorn, Covert Ops Essentials, and I have some of the newer console versions.
Rainbow Six 3, Black Arrow, Vegas 1 and 2... I love these games. I can't wait for your game and Rainbow Six Patriots

Nice! And it's really cool to see early info on it from the dev.

Soo.....
Your not really selling leather jackets then? Someday a Leather jacket with your logo on it will be worth money. (We'll talk about the percentage for that idea later. ) I'm waiting with payment information ready now Dan! |

Looks promising! Kinda reminds me Counter Strike 2d and Hotline Miami... but with much better graphics. I don't know if you need cash for Your project, but if You'll place it on e.g. Kickstarter, I'm sure you will get proper attention Salute to all members of Subsim

Oh man. Alpha 0.5 is AWESOME. Kudos to you guys in Romania. If you haven't done so, I highly suggest you check out Doorkickers.
