Subversion put on hold, Introversion announces new game

Post » Thu Dec 08, 2011 2:26 am

Recently Introversion’s Chris Delay announced that their emergent bank heist sim, Subversion was on hold, and that an entirely new project was in development for submission to this year’s Independent Games Festival. They’ve just sent word that their next game will be called Prison Architect. As the title suggests, it’s a game in which you “build and manage a maximum security prison.” The first screenshot, of sorts, is above. There’s no more information just yet, but from the first image alone, it looks as though it has a different vibe to Introversion’s traditional neon blue universes.

I have to agree with one of the comments on PC Gamer; "Dungeon Keeper, but not fantasy? Yep, I'll buy it." :nod:

I'm kinda disappointed, the whole procedurally generated city heist thing sounded good.

Huh, did I just go back a decade to when awful X Tycoon games were everywhere? :P
Just kidding, knowing the company it'll probably be pretty good in a unique way.
