Introversion’s Chris Delay has – in a continuation of the company’s earlier decision to “tell all” about their recent operational dealings – posted an account of the company’s recent woes.
On September 19th players will be able to get their hands on Multiwinia: Survival of the Flattest, the fourth game from Introversion software. If you have ever played Darwinia or Defcon, then you know how great this game could be. Until then we have a new “Capture the Statue” video for you guys.
For those of you who don’t know, Multiwinia is the fourth game developed by Introversion Software. I was a huge fan of Defcon and Darwinia. Multiwinia looks like it’s shaping up very nicely. In this video we take a look at the “King of the Hill” mode where players try to control zones.
Over at Introversion Software’s blog, the developer of Defcon and Darwinia has revealed it’s at work on its sixth game, Chronometer, with funding from the UK’s Channel 4.
It’s unclear what the fate of the game, currently in pre-production, will be; said Introversion’s Chris Delay:
Ultimately we don’t know for certain if Chronometer will be going into full production – the conditions would have to be right for Introversion and for Channel 4, although they’ve been fantastic to work with during pre-production. We’re pretty much finished with this phase of Chronometer for now, and we’ll keep you updated about this interesting sixth game project as decisions are made.
The team is currently preparing for the launch of Multiwinia (shown), a multiplayer version of strategy title Darwinia, for PC.

Though it’s been public knowledge for a while now, nobody has really seen or heard much about Multiwinia, the upcoming multiplayer edition of Introversion’s brilliant strategy title Darwinia. Have now! RPS’ Kieron Gillen has had a sit-down with the game, which can be best summed up with “It’s an RTS cut back to its core essentials – you can file it next to World in Conflict, but even pacier”. Works for me. Those interested in seeing how exactly the whole thing works – and how it looks – pop on over the Rock, Paper, Shotgun.
