So how was 2015 for Positech Games and err…me? Well it was pretty busy I guess… Lets see…<\/p>\n

I released Gratuitous Space Battles 2<\/a> to thunderous indifference, although enough sales to justify making it. I didn’t have the ‘best’ launch ever, and launched it amid so many space strategy game releases I cannot even count them all, which was extremely bad timing. Nevertheless, I enjoyed making it, and I’m very proud of the engine I built for it.<\/p>\n

We published ‘Big Pharma<\/a>‘, our second published game, and that was a bit of an indie hit. It proved to me that publishing games by a very select few other indie devs was something I enjoy and makes sense for me to do. Champagne all-round!<\/p>\n

I bought a very silly toy.<\/p>\n

I then bought an even more silly toy.<\/p>\n

I made the decision to publish shadowhand, a very interesting ‘card battling’ game, which is outside my normal genre, but I think has huge potential. So thats kept me busy.<\/p>\n

I also decided to publish another game that I have not publicly announced yet…<\/p>\n

Positech also started work, together with Jeff From stargazy on Democracy 3:Africa<\/a>, which I’m very excited about.<\/p>\n

Positech also funded the construction of a school in Cameroon<\/a>.<\/p>\n
