Idea for Midnight Synergy

jozsefkoma · Post by **jozsefkoma** » Fri Jan 21, 2011 7:00 pm

Working on a game is hard work.Working on a single game once is pretty slow.
Midnight Synergy is a group of persons,right?
My idea is: a part of group work on a game and another part on another game.
And these groups helps each other, if one group is without ideas or can't do something.
Making more games = earn more money and make the players happy.

Is that a good idea?
Please leave a comment.

I'm pretty sure Patrick is the only one a MS. I could be wrong though.

A smaller team will make the individual game slower. I doubt there's any sort of time gain that can result from this.

In a large company, maybe. Midnight Synergy is small, with Patrick Maidorn possibly being the only one in it.

Then:
A) why would he use the word "we"?

B) in wonderland games, he only refers to himself in the credits. In IXS ReCharge and IXS, it says: "Program and Code: Midnight Synergy".

I'm by myself on NFW(with the exeption of the forums, theres a lot of mods), but I often want to say "we".

I don't blame Patrick for that.

More proof I have:

We're actually all over the place. I'm located in Canada myself (cue "Blame Canada" soundtrack), but other team members have been in as varied locations as New York, New York and Maputo, Mozambique!

The forum I believe is set to standard UK time - just a default, there's nobody currently in the UK.

@DEEMAN: You think that's real? :P

MS is an indie developer, always remember that. The company thing is obviously fake, or outdated. Poor Patrick :P
