Did you know our studio office has a built in vault space? Our building used to house a bank, and we repurposed The Vault to create a calm center, where someone could play a game, record a podcast or just take a quiet moment to themselves. #VideoGames #GameDev #GameDevelopment #Gaming

D.I.C.E is a wrap and what a rewarding time. Certainly nice to meetup and connect with old and new friends in the industry. Very rewarding! Now today I travel to attend the VES Awards for our Nomination for Outstanding Visual Effects in a Real-time project for 'Immortals of Aveum' The premier (Society / Guild) that represents all manners of the entertainment industry around the world. One thing that was mentioned many times during DICE was how visually impressive the game is. What a journey and a work of collaboration to create and build this new world in the time frame and quality we reached for. Making the decision to pivot to Epic Games Unreal Engine 5 and build the entire game to fit with all the parameters required for all major platforms is a true testament of the passion and skill of the team at Ascendant Studios. New Engine, New IP and New Platforms is the perfect storm for a year of development delays. but we achieved it. I'm proud of our studio and humbled with what we accomplished in the trenches together and humbled to achieve the Nomination which was the goal from day 1 when I joined. Excited for the next chapter of the studio, but also taking the moment to reflect on the journey that is Immortals of Aveum. Now let's see if we win!? Even though, that goal has already been achieved. #dice2024 #dicesummit #vesawards #vfx #gamedevelopment #gamesindustry
