Polish based developer Nibris has signed industry leader
FOG Studios
as its exclusive representative for interactive development
and intellectual property placements.
"We have closely watched
how FOG Studios has helped other developers from our region, and from
around the world for that matter, achieve a level of success that many
teams aspire to, but often don't reach," says Nibris CEO Piotr Babieno.
"Also the fact that they do not shield their clients from their
customers, the publishers, as a way of maintaining their power base,
but instead help to facilitate direct and lasting relationships between
their clients and customers to create ongoing, self sustaining
partnerships. This is the mark of a great partner, and we are proud to
be working with them."
FOG Chairman and CEO Ed Dille adds,
"Although the games market always has been and likely always will be
driven to a large degree by franchise titles, many publishers are
realizing that they cannot simply recycle the classic franchises over
and over indefinitely in new packaging, and are aggressively looking
for titles that can become new franchises. At the same time, the public
is crying out for less replication and more innovation in game play,
which has been one of the driving factors behind the success of
Nintendo's Wii console recently. When we evaluated Nibris and their
highly anticipated Wii title Sadness, we saw a level of creativity,
passion and devotion to innovation that we have seen with past clients
like Westwood Studios, when they were launching Command & Conquer,
and we know those qualities will be rewarded in the marketplace."
FOG
and Nibris are currently showcasing their projects at the Game
Convention in Leipzig. FOG will also be representing their clients at
the upcoming Austin Game Developer's Conference and the Tokyo Game
Show.
