Team Update
Dear Solicians, we are very excited to announce that Solice has gained two new team members. Lionel and Kasia recently have joined the team meaning that a proper introduction is due.
The Content Writer
Without any further ado: Kasia (KA-sha), aka @beanup on discord is currently studying Media and Film. She is thrilled to join Solice as a content writer; and has already had the pleasure of talking to some of the Solicians in discord to explain her role.
Kasia will focus on running the Solice blog. This includes writing a variety of articles showcasing the progress of the Solice team, announcing exciting updates and news, publishing bi-weekly updates on the progress of the team, as well as work on SEO friendly articles to improve exposure and gain a foot in digital marketing. Furthermore, Kasia will be closely involved in the discord community so that she can deliver content Solicians are particularly interested in. Kasia will create a bridge between the Solice team and the Solice community, always making sure Solicians are in the loop and have their questions answered.
Another Game Developer!
The other addition to the team is Lionel, who will oversee particular aspects of the game development such as the in-game economics, map editor and other important game mechanisms.
Lionel is said that he is proud to join Solice. In previous positions at other companies, Lionel has acted as a product manager and game developer for about five years now. Having worked mainly on “Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night — Dead” by Daylight Mobile, Lionel also had the pleasure of working on several indie games — check them out on Steam! As a heavy gamer himself, Lionel is excited to be a part of the Solice team. Some of his strengths include game development knowledge and system design skills, as well as UX insights, helping him to make better decisions when it comes to building the value and concept of the game.
As some of you may already know, Solice is a different project from traditional games in that Lionel has the opportunity to interact with fans on a global scale, and no longer need other intermediaries or partners for fundraising; as he puts it: “this seems to be a big source of work pressure in the future (laughs), but in the past game development was a lonely job and now being able to get close to the people who care might alleviate the loneliness”.
Lionel continues “great games require full dedication in order to achieve success; I hope that in the future I can invest my enthusiasm in plot, technology, or gameplay and art, and gradually improve players’ gaming experience”.
Future Onboarding
We are looking forward to working with Kasia and Lionel as we see them both as crucial assets to the team. We are currently in the process of onboarding more people to our team, including developers and marketing folk. Please stay tuned for more information.
