WILD
EARTH Wins the Grand Prize at the 2003 Independent Games Festival
Los Angeles, CA - 3/10/2003 -- The Independent
Games Festival is the premier showcase for innovation in the
computer games industry. This year, Wild
Earth from Super
X Studios has been recognized by the gaming industry and awarded
three prizes: Innovation in Game Design, Innovation in Visual
Arts, and the Seumas McNally Grand Prize.
Wild Earth is distinctive because of its AAA-quality
design, with an interactive 3D environment that is made for all
ages to enjoy. It is rare to see a non-violent game, targeted
for the family market, that has such high production values and
cutting edge technology.
Wild
Earth sends players of all ages on a photo-safari through
the plains of the Serengeti. What sets it apart from other family-oriented
titles is the state-of-the-art 3D engine that it uses, developed
over the last six years by Super X Studios, which brings the Serengeti
to life with amazingly realistic wildlife and environments.
Wild Earth will be released in 2005.

This
marks the second time that Super X Studios has won at the festival:
their breakthrough title Far Gate (originally titled
The Rift) won the Audience Award by popular vote in the
2000 Independent Games Festival. It was subsequently published
in 13 countries.
