Atman Software Debuts India's First Completely in-house Developed Commercial Video Game for the PC and Mac

Bangalore, Karnataka, India

Atman Software, an independent Indian game developer, today, after six years of working under stealth mode, unveiled io for the PC and the Mac, a 3D side-scroller game with contemporary graphics and game-play technology. io is priced at $13 and is available for sale online now, as a digital download at the Atman Software website ( www.atmansoftware.com ).

io's gameplay is a throwback to the classic arcade games but packaged under contemporary graphics and gameplay technology. A short game with multiple weapons, night and thermal vision cameras and various robotic bots to dismember, io is not something that you will be beating soon.

Atman Software Founder and sole developer, Thomas Kuriakose, commented "io represents one man's effort in developing a computer game with contemporary technology, in India. Except for io's soundtrack, everything else including the 3D engine, characters, models, animations, textures and artificial intelligence was completely developed in-house at Atman Software. For all it's worth, io is a marvelous achievement for Atman Software."

io is powered by Atman software's proprietary game engine that supports true 3D rendering with real-time lighting and shadows, programmable shaders, skeletal animation, particle effects, collision detection and artificial intelligence.

io is available for Windows and as a Universal Binary for the Mac. A playable demo is available on the Atman Software website.

Atman software is currently looking for distributors in and outside India to distribute io.
