Sound Design
Ariel is being developed by a small team. - The lead programmer has worked on various projects in the past, such as Kerbal Space Program. - The second developer is a musician who has experience on Playstation releases. He worked on the 3D models, sound effects, music and story line. He is the producer of the game as well. Many skilled people have helped us along the way. Ariel is the result of much dedication and commitment. We are very happy with the results, and we can't wait for you to experience the game. With a tiny budged and a lot of passion, Ariel stands as an indie videogame that we want everybody to play; we think the price range will allow this, encouraging players into Ariel's experience.
