Revolutionary Games

We are Revolutionary Games Our team is made up of individuals from all over the world and all with different skills, brought together by a determination to make Thrive as good as it can be. There are over 800 users on the Thrive forums, most of whom have contributed to the project, so to mention everyone would take a long time. Instead, here are statements from our current team leads, along with a list of all our major contributors. All names are usernames on the Thrive forum. ~sciocont Rank: Overall Team Lead I'm ~sciocont (Isaac Krone), the overall leader of Revolutionary Games for the past two years. I've helped write the concepts for organism editing, evolution, planet generation, biomes, compounds, and plenty else during my time as a team member, and developing a strong concept for the Organism Editor won me my leadership role way back when I first joined the team. In these few years running the project I've been more or less the face of the project outside of our forums- I run our Mod DB and Facebook pages, built the forums and contributed some of the art you can see on our gallery page. I'm more excited than ever about Thrive since we're making great progress on microbe stage, I anticipate having a playable (if rudimentary), in-engine game out within the year. Outside of the project, I'm currently pursuing a career as an evolutionary biologist, and will be off to the University of Chicago to start my higher education in the fall of 2013. In my free time, I play the trumpet, write music, build large siege weapons, and clean dinosaur bones. NickTheNick Rank: Strategy Team Lead/Overall Team Co-Lead Hello, my name is NickTheNick, also known on the forums as just Nick. I'm a relative newcomer to the team, but then again, many of the old-timers don't make appearances very much these days. My role within the team takes many shapes and forms, and is rooted in basically no skills. I joined the team an eager fanboy, and to this day have only learned a bit of Python and basic Blender modelling to top it off. I put to use my knowledge of strategy games, and my passion for making games, and here I am as a Strategy Team lead. I think that the time and passion I have put into this project really are what have brought me to this position and have earned me the praise I am surprised to receive. Something Confucius once said captures how I feel on these forums: "Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life". THRIVE is a project that promises the most, and demands the greatest. What I love about it is too much to explain in a few words, but what I will say is that already I have spent more time developing this game, yet to be complete, then I have spent playing any other game in my life, including World of Warcraft. I have full confidence in the success of this titanic venture, and I plan to stick around as long as I can drive the project one foot further.
