A special sale focusing on Open World games has started on Steam and lasts until 31th of May.
We wholeheartedly cherish this special event and celebration of infinite exploration. You know, it's very much our genre, since early 90s, and acknowledged with (debatable) merits such as
First open-world survival game (GWR Gamer's Edition 2019).
Anyway, it's a special opportunity to grab the game for discounted price from the Steam. Just venture at
UnReal World store page.
Since this is very dear topic, genre and approach to game development for us, we wanted to celebrate the occasion with special content.
Those who have followed the development do know that for Enormous Elk game development isn't actually clean indoors job.
We tend to practise what we code, pursue the traditional lifestyle to varying extent, and draw a lot of inspiration from the real world experiments and adventures.
As a special way to celebrate the ongoing Open World Sale we've compiled you this picture feed of the two man dev. team doing their infinite exploration outside the development chambers. This is an assorted collection of dev's life along the way in the real world. Enjoy!
