I figure I'll go first to break the ice, lol

My name is Raymond Jacobs, I'm the owner of Ethereal Darkness Interactive.

I wrote the game engine for Morning's Wrath, I also did most of the in-game art; a lot of the story writing and game play scripting too.

I also wrote the S3Engine 1.0 which has been used for The Lost City of Malathedra; I also did all of the art and half of the story writing and game play scripting.

My home-office is based in Western Massachusetts in the pioneer valley; where I live with my lovely fiancee, we're set to be married this may at Hammond castle in gloucester, MA; and continue making indie games for many years to come.

Gratz on the upcoming wedding mate :)

Live in Brisbane Australia Married with 2 kids that know it all :wink:

I'm an Avid game player and Collector or Obsessive Collector if you wish and at present have 1500 titles - I like most games except racing or sport.

Love Indie games and support where I can - don't really play too many online games unless it's and indie title such as "Minions of Mirth"

Dunno what else to say except - "PLAY ON" :D

Ian

My name is Brian Linton, I'm co-developing Malathedra with Raymond (who gives me WAY too much credit) doing mostly lua scripting with some writting and C++ programming thrown in.

I've been around the indie game development scene for a long time but Malathedra will be the first full scale title I've helped to complete.

I, of course, love games in addtion to sports and reading.

Hi there, I'm Michael Cencarik.

I'm 19 and got to the University of Texas in Arlington where I study Industrial Engineering because I couldn't pull the all nighters required by my Computer Science and Engineering classes. :(

I found Morning's Wrath on GameTap and I'm going to buy it within a month (I just need to know where to send my money :D )

Keep up the great work EDI. And congratulations Raymond on the marriage. By the way, does the lucky lady help with the games? Oh yeah, I HATE YOU (not really) FOR GETTING MARRIED IN A CASTLE YOU LUCKY DOG YOU!!!! :D Really, your lucky.

Sorry to hear about the comp-sci issues; I decided to wing it in the industry. I don't have a degree in computer science, or anything for that matter. I just spent a lot of time trying to follow my dreams and learned what I needed along the way.

Interesting that you mention that, we've been planning for a while now to get her involved; she's been very interested to help since we first met.

She has finished writing the story for her first game, and will be using the S3Engine 2.0 to write it. I just built her a development computer for this purpose:

AMD64 X2 3800+, 2GB DDR2, nVidia 6Series with SM3, 2x 250GB SATA HDD

There should be more information coming out about her game this coming year, at the moment it seems it will be produced under EDIGames.

Hola :D

I like beer, and sometimes Lady Grey tea.

I think that's all there is to say ;).

It's funny, there's a lot like that ;). I have some friends that work for a few publishers, and it's funny how much they winged it :o. Of course one company went bankrupt, but I'm sure that had nothing to do with it :shock:.

Welcome Kadlin. What is Lady Grey Tea? Is it anything like Earl Grey?
Most importantly, what does it taste like?
