2017-02-13 X-Morph: Defense Announced



After years of silent development we are proud to announce our latest game - X-Morph: Defense. A picture is worth a thousand words, so the best way to learn what the game is about is to check out the announcement trailer:



The first concept for X-Morph: Defense was created sometime in 2010, however full production started in 2013, just after we finished the PlayStation 3 version of Zombie Driver HD.



2009-10-01 Zombie Driver announced!



It has been a long time since we posted news on D.I.P.R.I.P. Many have already thought (and written on our forums) that there will be no more updates... Today we are proud to announce what we have been doing since March. The new game is called Zombie Driver. It is a driving, shooting, 3D action game - similarity to D.I.P.R.I.P. is purely incidental :). This time it is singleplayer and you will be more in the zombie obliteration business rather than the metal bending business.



The game is based on open source/free solutions like Ogre3D for rendering and PhysX by Nvidia for physics simulation. The team behind Zombie Driver is exactly the same as it is for D.I.P.R.I.P. Developing Zombie Driver does NOT mean that we are abandoning D.I.P.R.I.P., on the contrary, Zombie Driver is meant to support D.I.P.R.I.P. To finish a huge project like D.I.P.R.I.P. and to make it a great game, which has always been our dream, we decided that we need to publish a game like Zombie Driver. Otherweise we were not able to focus enough on making D.I.P.R.I.P. and the progress was too slow.



Zombie Driver is also tied to the D.I.P.R.I.P. universe in some ways. Especially for D.I.P.R.I.P. fans we included one of the D.I.P.R.I.P. cars inside the game. It's a hidden vehicle that you will have to unlock as a reward for completing a side quest. Check out some exclusive screenshots with the Ratmobile vs Zombies confrontation below.



Old fans can spot even more than that, but you will have to look for the details by yourselves :)



To learn more about Zombie Driver please head on to the Zombie Driver website which includes screenshots and a debut trailer.

2009-01-05 D.I.P.R.I.P. is Mod of the Year at Steamfriends.com



2008 has passed as a year full of success for D.I.P.R.I.P. Our first demo release in March has put us on the modding scene and gathered a lot of positive feedback followed by numerous press reviews and interviews. The innovation and quality delivered by D.I.P.R.I.P. has been recognized by Valve and we were able to Warm Up the modding scene once again in October by delivering D.I.P.R.I.P. Warm Up directly through Steam.



Now we are proud and excited to announce that we have been chosen as the Mod of The Year by Steamfriends.com



"What at first looked to be a simple take on the classic 'Twisted Metal' quickly gathered speed and became a lot more than a simple re-make. DIPRIP sees players driving huge metal beats around beautifully created landscapes, fending off fellow drivers with bombs, rockets and miniguns while carrying nuclear bombs into the enemy base to create just that little bit more destruction. Featuring its own achievements and packing completely destructable scenery and explosive action, DIPRIP is a hell of a lot of fun and more than deserves our Mod of the Year award..."





As 2008 has come to an end the Moddb.com's Mod of the year Awards nominations voting has now begun.

"From January 2nd to January 16th every indie game and mod on the site has a voting booth activated in their profile. It is now up to you, to find your favorites, play them and vote for them - so we can narrow thousands of contenders down to the players choice top 100..."



Remember to vote for D.I.P.R.I.P. and wish us good luck in the voting.

"We only award the Steamfriends Gold Award to games we believe to be of the highest calibre and DIPRIP is definitely one of those games. Not only does it feel well-polished, enjoyment-driven and full of oozing potential, but just talking to the creators for a few minutes about their mod, you can just tell that it has months of months of pure love for gaming hammered into it"
