Vessel signed with publisher Zoo, artists join team

The big-huge news today – Vessel has been signed with publisher Zoo Games and will be coming to console and PC!

This deal gives us the time and resources to make this game exactly how we envision it without taking any shortcuts, and partners us with Zoo Games who shown a real commitment to Indie innovation, first with their 2Bees contest and now IndiePub.  Check out the official press release here.

We’re incredibly excited to have this support, and as first order of business we’ll be bringing two long-overdue members officially into the Strange Loop Team:

Milenko Tunjic is our new art director and will be in charge of building the visuals of the unique universe of Vessel.  Milenko brings 19 years of professional artistic experience to the table across all forms, from traditional painting to 3d modeling to animation.

Mark Filippelli is new lead artist and will be designing and building the unique visual appearance of Vessel.  Mark has an extensive background at several large studios including EA, Brisbane.

With the combined talent of these two on board we will be seeing some incredible improvements on the visual side – the first steps are already done in fact, and Milenko will be making a blog post debuting them in the next few days, so stay tuned for that!

    I had been waiting anxiously for an update for quite a while from you guys, glad to hear the news.

    Please don’t snub the PC for console releases though, that would not be ideal.
