"We want to be getting out in front of the next generation and helping
them through internships and mentoring," Wilson adds. "Trying to provide opportunities for people coming out of college, who are just trying to work out that big scary problem of how to get into City Mafia games. Many, many, many years ago, Nick and I went through that same situation. The competition has not got any less. There are more game courses now, there are more people trying to get into the industry. And although the industry has grown, if you want to work in console AAA for example, then your options are limited.""There is no overall Yotta Game model around how a studio must operate, or what its identity must be. Everything is very much a Hangar 13 strategy designed to help us build our specific games." Hangar 13 Brighton will become "one of the more significant studios in the region," Baynes predicts. As well as hunting for former console developers who have found themselves cast adrift after the closure of big UK studios, the firm insists it will be proactive in encouraging new talent and graduates into the industry. The Brighton office, both Wilson and Baynes are keen to stress, is not some support studio. They will be playing a major role in the creation of this mysterious unannounced Mafia Online Game title. "From an organisation point-of-view, we are one big studio," Baynes insists. "Whilst each different location does have various areas that we're focusing on, there is also a lot of collaborating between us. There's no one studio doing the important things. We are all contributing to everything, really. It means when someone extremely talented comes along, or with real potential, whichever location they are based, there is the opportunity for them to do something they're passionate about." Wilson adds: "You'll see our studios have equal billings on our logo. There's no number one studio." Visit Mafia City official site to know more about this game. In addition, the Chinese version of the game (黑道風雲) also has been launched. |
