Guns of Icarus 10th Anniversary Celebration
This year we're celebrating our 10th birthday! 10 years of airships, rams, explosions, and friends.
To all the privateers, captains, and crew that have ever braved the skies over the wastelands, we want to thank you from the bottom of our souls for supporting us over the last decade. A decade! Before we set out, we had a dream of making something that people hadnt quite experienced before, but we certainly didnt imagine that 10 years later, people would still be playing and supporting the game. Thank you for making our dream come true. When we started, we had just been digging out a predatory publisher relationship, and we released Guns on the day of a category 3 hurricane. We honestly werent sure if we were going to make it or even be able to support the game. Many times I have had those life flashing before my eyes moments - servers blown up, DDoSed, hurricane, studio space burnt down, etc. Each time, we found strength and comfort in everyones support. All the interactions on forums and at conventions, all the late nights we spent with you in game, chit-chatting about life in the lobbies of Icarus, they mattered, and they kept us going. When matches did start, it was amazing to see how much creativity and teamwork were possible, way beyond our imaginations and machinations. The thousands of feedback we worked on with you turned into close to 6.5M matches played, 24M ships destroyed, and 8.8B shots fired in the skies. These stats still look surreal to us. In the last few years, weve had to shift our focus to create new game experiences such as Hamsterdam, Embr, and now Wildmender, in order to survive as a team and studio. Weve handed the reins of game management to our interns, moderators, CAs, and dedicated players. We wanted to take a moment to thank them for all their support - Richard LeMoon, Portable Grump, Lysanya, Kajros, Loosepolygon, Alpha Sierra, Infinity Omelette, Delorum, Josie. Nerdhector, -Genesis, D.Strought, Zetnus, MaddBoi, Abby, Mr Trickery, Nedsvart, Sandy Hawkins, Tindwunnel, Frostbound, Teaco, Psi Crow, Saldarim, Bookkeepper, Krybon, Captainjan, Sprinkler, Ortagon, Chickenrun, Ambiorix, Coldcurse, FrozenHotSauce, Guras, Huskyneer, Mr.Moonwalker, Zyem, and others. We would not have gotten this far without you. Thank you for everything! We made this game for you, and were so thankful that 10 years after release, we get to write this note. To more years in the skies!
To celebrate this improbably and special milestone, we're giving away a big pack of goodies, including:
Wildmender is our new project in development. It is an open world survival experience set in an arid world. You get to explore the land, cultivate an oasis, and bring the world slowly back to life. On top of that, well also enter you into a giveaway for one of these wonderful faction banners! These are one of a kind, so please tell us which one youd like if you win. 4 banners, 4 lucky winners!
