SCEE providing Vicious Engine to developers in India
In an effort to spur development on the PSP and PS2 platforms, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has announced a partnership with Vicious Engine to game developers in India. There is a burgeoning games development scene in India, and Sony is trying to make it as easy as possible for developers to work on their platforms.
"We looked for an all-inclusive game engine that provided flexibility and a rapid development cycle," said Jim Ryan, COO of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe. "The Vicious Engine is both intuitive and easy-to-use, an excellent choice for our program in India."
"Working with up-and-coming developers has always been part of our long-term strategy," said Eric Peterson, president and CEO of Vicious Cycle Software. "This is an historic program, and we are looking forward to all the amazing titles Indian developers will create using our engine."
The Vicious Engine has been used in a number of games, including Dead Head Fred and Puzzle Quest on the PSP.
