About the Team

Who are the people behind the project?

The team behind the Allacrost project consists of programmers, artists, composers, and others all across the globe. These people contribute to Allacrost in their spare time, and are not compensated financially.

If no one working on the project is paid, why does anyone work on it at all?

Everyone working on Allacrost have their own personal motivations. Some want to learn and gain experience and skill through their contributions. Others want to use it as a stepping stone for entering the game industry. The most popular reason that people continue to work on Allacrost is because they have fun doing so.

Are any of the team members professional game designers?

Some do indeed have industry experience, but the majority of the team members have either developed games independently in the past or not at all. Several members of the Allacrost team are aspiring to work in the game development industry.
