Abyssal Announces New Game Engine

Connecticut-based tools developer Abyssal Technologies now has a new engine, Abyssal Engine, available for licensing, the company announced today. The company says its technology is comprised of a game creation tool kit and rendering engine aimed at reducing development time. It's designed to be used across a variety of genres from RPG to real-time strategy, and is available to both commercial and independent developers. Abyssal says it has a number of parties at various stages of evaluating its tech, and one unnamed developer has already purchased its Commercial Enterprise solution for a new RPG project. Next up, Abyssal says it'll be investigating expanding its platform to include support for massively multiplayer development. "We are delighted to be able to offer a professional, extensible and easy to use development solution to both commercial professionals and experienced independent developers," says Mina Bierner.
