To anyone who's played Uplink, today's date might seem eerily familiar.
24th March 2010 - the date you see on your clock when you first log in to the game and create an Agent. A date I originally chose for two reasons : 24th March is my birthday (31 today, thanks), and 2010 was TEN YEARS into the future. It was so far into the distant future it didn't even seem like a real date. From today onwards, Uplink will in fact be set in the past.
Which of course means ten years of Introversion Software. In that time we've had Uplink, Darwinia, DEFCON, Multiwinia and now Darwinia+ for Xbox. We've seen the rise of Indie games from nothing to the major force they are in the games market today. We've seen the market change completely - and the rise of digital distribution systems on all platforms that have revolutionised game delivery. We've lived through an incredibly turbulent and exciting time in games.
Big thanks to everyone who's enjoyed our games over the past decade.
