Hey guys, just wanted to announce that I'm starting up a dedicated video game development studio, and will use my newly acquired resources (aka 5 professional developers) to pick up where I left off with OperationSidfin.

The studio is called Sidular Interactive, and will operate as a full-time development studio out in the Toronto Canada area.

If you're interested in joining our Steam community, the URL can be found below.
Please be aware that OperationSidfin will be our flagship release, but won't be the first game coming out.

We'll post updated development information and statements on our new Steam community, so please keep a lookout for updated information relating to OperationSidfin.

Thank you, and we hope you have an amazing holiday season.

If anyone wants to (freely) develop a few extra character models for me, you're more than welcome to do so.
Just be sure to create it in Blender.

If all goes well, I *might* be able to provide the modeler with some kind of commission. Honestly though, the reason I've slowed down development of Sidfin is because I'm completely out of money, so take the commission promise with a grain of salt.

Also, this isn't for Sidfin, but rather Alien World. Alien World is a low-budget game, with low-end graphics and an artistic style. Mostly though, I'm just making it for fun.

Should I put OperationSidfin on the upcoming Steam Greenlight service?

I'm not sure if it'd be a wise idea or not, so any feedback is appreciated.

Just like with A.G.E (the other game I'm developing) I'm giving you all the chance to make OperationSidfin a free-to-play game.

If this group gets 20,000 members, I'll give Sidfin away for free.

Why such a high member count? Simple. OperationSidfin is a major project of mine. It's not just your everyday Minecraft 'clone', it's a full fledged and original gameplay experience, with high-end graphics and huge fully playable planets to explore. Plus, there's a very real chance that we really could get 20,000 members. It did manage to get 100 members overnight, so who knows. 20,000 isn't an impossible number. :)
So, in case I do have to actually give away my game, I'd like to have a fairly large group of people to give it to. To make all the hard work seem worth it.

If this group doesn't get 20,000 members, the game will be available on Steam for $20, and will launch next year.
