Name is Latin for “In the Middle of Things”

They have set up a Youtube channel and Patreon where they say they are “creating folklore readings, music, and 3D modeling.”

Tyson Auchtor, on Patreon About page says quote “I'm passionate about telling odd, yet compelling stories in a visually interesting manner. Combining such stories with music, atmospheric design, and 3D modeling for video production is what this is all about. I hope you join me on this journey!”

They attribute writing by Joshua Doetsch (? possibly misattributed) and musical theme based on Secret World composer Simon Poole.

Funcom and Nukklear to develop Dune survival game

“The spice must flow. Or at least that’s what Funcom and German developer Nukklear are counting on with a new game in the Dune universe.

In 2019, Funcom acquired the rights to make a game based on Frank Herbert’s Dune, a popular science fiction series that has spawned several adaptations. The currently untitled project will take inspiration from another Funcom game named Conan Exiles and will focus on survival gameplay. After an investment from media giant Tencent, Funcom reached out to developer Nukklear to help co-develop the new title.

“As the Dune open-world survival game is the most ambitious project we’ve ever undertaken at Funcom, having skilled and reliable partners is an absolute must. With Nukklear we have just that. We’ve benefited particularly from their expertise in vehicular based gameplay, but I know them as highly skilled and creative game developers in general,” said Rui Casais, Funcom CEO.”
