“Reflecting internally, the team’s Creative Director and marketing man, Igor commented that: “In hindsight, we should’ve thrown a few more dollars into our marketing or waited for a later build to showcase, but this was what our schedule and budget dictated and we had to chase it down.”
That said, the small independent studio will further tighten their purse strings and continue working full time on the game to its completion.
