Prison Architect (first look)

[ChubbyLinuxGuy]

Looks amazing!

[tschleuss]

Oh no, we need to wait at september to play a alpha (paid) version.. too long..

[tschleuss]

@tschleuss i will wait ;)

[utubeb14]

*insect *insert comment here* comment here*

[weirdone17]

me want.

[BloodRedOtter]

but where are the velociraptors?

[zeldamasterX]

How the hell is that dwarf fortress guys ?? This games look amazing, and as deep as usual with Introversion. I can already feel the tension of managing a prison, where at every moment a prisonner could try to escape

[TheStonerofTruth]

Y U NO GIMME GAME NOW?!?!?!?

[thegeneralpie]

Hey Everyone who loved Subversion. We all want this game to be created right?

Well then lets all do it with Blender 3D

We all band together and get make it. Honestly it'd be worth a shot rather then wait for the game to be picked up, and even so; what do we have to lose?

Programming is something that everyone can do, so why not us?

Send me a message and if we can get enough people we can at least give it a shot to make this game what it was meant to be.

[93Gamerz]

are you fraud us?

Why there is still NOTHING you can show us except this one little video?

Whats with pre-order to play alpha, beta and final?

[TheBlackBritt]

IM THROWING MONEY BUT ITS BOUNCING OFF THE SCREEN!

[bountyhunter552]

I always wanted to imprison people, but seeing that that is naturally cruel I'll be sure to buy this instead.

[BriganFilgroinas]

This looks to me like a Dwarf Fortress blattant ripoff. Why would I pay for a ripoff when the original Dwarf Fortress is better and FREE?

You better download it at bay12games. Also I recommend the "ironhand tileset" graphical version

[Earther001]

@BriganFilgroinas Well one thing about dwarf fortress is...its kinda difficult....and really i think any sim game where you build your place is gonna have similarities.....It's kinda a staple of the Sim/Tycoon/Management genre

[tschleuss]

I WANT THIS GAME NOW, i have all the games from introversion..

[bongmistt]

The indie scene is the only thing that excites me in PC games. The golden era of gaming maybe gone, but guys like Introversion give me much joy :)

[MrCaome]

It would be nice if introvison would give out more information about this game. it seems VERY promising.

[RadoslawBunczuk]

i want to buy this game. Even it is free..

[navuek]

@RadoslawBunczuk who in the hell Said it would be free???

[link6065]

so dwarfy...

[MrCaome]

want to preorder this.

[GrizzlerBorno]

I wish they would continue making Subversion. :(

[Kwertos]

This looks awesome.

Day 1 purchase

[SiHy]

Reminds me of the good old days of the Bullfrog "Theme ..." games. Looking forward to it.

[Focks82]

Imagine Dwarf Fortress with these graphics...make it happen for the love of god.

[zombieassasin74]

when is it comin out?

[johuotar]

looks darfy

[thefuture03]

Y do you anyways think of awesome concept! I'm in love! O.o

[topherhkr]

This reminds me some much of Dwarf Fortress but with a FAR better UI.

......

When's the Alpha Release again?

[sbeast64]

*Achievement unlocked: Dropped the soap*

[theral056]

If you need beta testers, I can't wait trying to break this game. Reminds me pretty much of Dwarf Fortress - and it was always fun to break it :D

[MrECHOfox]

Dwarf Fortress with prisons and possible a better UI? I'm so sold!

[utubeb14]

Didn't realize that the release for this game was so far off :(

[HotXRock]

Yet another awesome weirdness from Introversion. Can't wait to play!

[UnderScorePT]

Introversion is the best games development company atm.

[Dryued]

I want to see a prison riot.

[FlowerPowerGuy]

Want want want want want want want want want.

[rupert484]

@Tehnexie True, however DF doesn't have a lighting engine (would be hard considering it's ASCII). And the movement seems a bit more smooth.

[OzanSerkan99]

Do they riot

[Twerty222]

@OzanSerkan99 It's a prison, good sir. Riots are what prisoners do.

[OzanSerkan99]

@Twerty222 I hope

[grywacz]

Linux?

[TalosTv]

The end of the video says "IGF Hopeful 2012". That is being held in March. So, the game will hopefully be released in March. Ta-da.

[93Gamerz]

ANY INFORMATIONS? WEBSITE? PLEASE DO SOMETHING ARGH!

[Coltzors]

why you not take my money now? :(

[rlui123]

music?

[simianitch]

Your city game looked much more interesting.

[YgamerA]

looks good but i hate to wait on something >.<

[Henroidt]

Probably the best concept for a game I've seen in a while. Getting sick of dwarves and mining and theme parks.

[zombieassasin74]

When does it come out?

[zombieassasin74]

NEED PRISON ARCHITECT NOW!

[93Gamerz]

HELLO PLEASE TELL US HOW TO BUY OR PLAY ALPHA, why not use some kind of pre-order and play alpha now?!?!

[Milky332]

There is a building in the top left not functioning.

[GaMEChld]

Why is Introversion so awesome at what they do?!

[TheBlackBritt]

MY MONEY IS BEING ABSORBED THROUGH THE SCREEN!

[PhilippGabisoniya]

I. WANT. THIS. GAME. RIGHT. NOW!

[ThalesII]

Love the art style

[MrFanaticism]

TAKE MY WALLET NOW!!!

[MsRomanze]

Вот бы Dwarf Fortress выглядел так...

[gameaddictwn]

Only introversion software can make a prison making game good. ONLY THEM!!!

[hotsonetti]

YOU BUILD STUFF?!

Something's moving in my trousers...

[lestatv3]

HORY SHEEET THIS LOOKS AMAZING! @___@

[clisoop]

I want it !!!!!

[HeavyStorm4]

i been waiting for a game like this!

[kawsper]

Shut up and take my money!

[rosishere1]

i like it alrady

[TheSomeone77177]

Damn, that game doesn't look too bad! I would defiantly play that! :D Cant wait till its ready!

[BadKarmaNinja]

This has me watching a bunch of prison documentary it would be AMAZING if he went the extra distance and gave a few inmates back stories, high risk..so on so forth adding extra depth to this...hell even crooked gaurds and massive gangs that start randomly forming

[clisoop]

when does it come out?

[93Gamerz]

damn i can not say how much times i watch this gameplay video I WANT MOAAARRRR

[xezko93dieHARD]

ITS LIKE DWARF FORTRESS OMG

[xezko93dieHARD]

ITS LIKE DWARF FORTRESS OMG

[93Gamerz]

yeah the building with the field left at start remends me totaly to the imps at bullfrogs Dungeon keeper hehe

[93Gamerz]

PC???? OVER STEAM? (I HOPE!) and what price?

Looks very nice for a indie game like that.

[Jointe18]

Hi there my name is Michaek Scofield, and i designed this place ;)

[nickm34456]

someones been watching a bit of Prison Break <3

[tempe011]

looks awesome, love the music as well!

[x42bn6]

Does Michael Scofield appear in this game?

[XxDahamonnahxX]

@x42bn6 if he would : game over

[Gorekiller6]

Does it simulate shower rape, too?

[MegaGlitchMaster100]

@Gorekiller6 Your Comment just made my day

[Theperson45]

I hope this is better than Prison Tycoon 4.

[quickfirepl]

Auschwitz Tycoon!

[Kirklestat92]

Prisoners are asked not to die in the corridors.

[MSDOS128]

You've made this bullshit instead the Subversion game!

[BRBSHUTUPNOOB]

@MSDOS128 subversion was too hard to make, dumbass. if you were an indie dev you would know it would be hard.

[JimPlaysGames]

I love the way the construction is actually a process rather than just instant magical creation of objects. Looks brilliant. I cannot wait to be a cruel sadistic prison warden :D

[prantare]

They should really start making alot of hype for this game.. not alot of people know about it!

It really looks amazing!

[lukepham101]

There are numerous butt rapes happening in your showers, what would you like to do?

ALLOW IT!

[RyuRanXII]

PC gaming as it's finest and purest form.

[AA98Wirable98AA]

I wan't this game!

[delpuerco]

Simnmates.

[rupert484]

It's like Dwarf Fortress with graphics :O

[theral056]

I hope so much for a "preorders get acces to beta"-stuff :D Can't wait for it. Reminds me so much of Dwarf Fortress. Just with sound. And a good interface. :D

[Alewxx]

@IVSoftware what is that music? heard it and now im stuck with it!

[Axle186]

Looks interesting. If it's anything like Theme Hospital I am so going to like this :D

[utubeb14]

DO want... i hope it has lots of little things to manage

[MRroddan96]

This game will get big.

[prantare]

Looks amazing. Where can I preorder it? :O

[irclifford]

The Dwarf fortress of Arizona State

[xLoNaDaRx]

Theme Prison?

[soalsoalsoal]

the layout of cells in this game is identical to how I layout dwarf rooms in dwarf fortress...

[sergeantshizzle]

Hello Introversion :)

A question regarding the gameplay. Will the player ALWAYS take on the role of prison manager? Or will we be able to play as one of the prisoners in a randomly generated prison and try and break down the prison system?

[Evilhen88]

1 giant cell full of prisoners...I can't wait.

[BeringLogic]

Reminds me of dwarf fortress. But with better graphics and with bad guys within. Very cool!

[BRBSHUTUPNOOB]

this is just dwarf fortress with better graphics :3. epic.

[fishchunksgaming]

This reminds me of Command and Conquer...I WANT THIS NOW!

[arbayer2]

COMING SOON! The sequel to the critically-acclaimed "Prison Architect" from Introversion, comes something quite though not entirely similar! "SCHOOL ARCHITECT"! Design academic buildings, computer labs, gyms, locker rooms, classrooms and more in a pixelated, 2D environment! However, there will be certain students who think their time can be better spent off-campus, so you must add enough teachers, hall monitors, campus police officers and other staff to keep them kids learnin'! (C) 2011 BCI

[arbayer2]

@arbayer2 Seriously, IV, freakin' brilliant. I'd never have thought of it. Keep kicking ass and taking names in the game development community. :D

[danielkronos]

I want to go to cryo sleep while this game doesn't game out.

[Khrisper]

You had me sold at 20 seconds in.

[basmithtx]

CONVICT FORTRESS

[thing2liv]

@basmithtx so like dwarf fortress but with more intelligent dwarfs?

[shadowcatkill69]

I KEEP THROWING MY WALLET AT THE SCREEN

BUT IT DOES NOTHING IT BOUNCES OFF

HELP

[HunterGuilherme]

@shadowcatkill69

This joke was funny the first 200 times it was used.

[shadowcatkill69]

@HunterGuilherme Still funnier than then arrow to the knee jokes

[Atomic91]

but overall it's a fucking awesome concept since i'm a huge fan of dwarf fortress.

[DoomChild31]

I can't believe Bullfrog didn't do this back in the day. This reminds me a lot of Theme Hospital.

[runtime13]

I want it!!! I have all Introversion's games and I love this too!!!

[YakuzaBoss]

I hope you have something up your sleeve. With dwarf fortress, the possibilities are endless, could make anything happen. Your freedom of what can happen in a prison sim is a bit more restrictive. In fact there was a prisoner tycoon made, it was boring for those exact reasons.

[UnitSe7en]

Looks interesting.. I've never liked management/tycoon games (aside from Transport Tycoon), but, because it's you guys I'll give it a go. I trust you. Sad news on Subversion - but you must go with what's working and all good things come in time.

[scr3wthegovernment]

D-D-D-D-Dwarf Fortress!

[The7thINFANTRY]

Looks very unique. Going to keep an eye on this, could be the next great game. 

[Blizzlockable]

@The7thINFANTRY Well there is already a game like this, and its free! It is called Dwarf Fortress, its very fun, but has a bit of a learning curve. Dwarf fortress is more advanced then this by the looks of it.

[UnitSe7en]

@Blizzlockable You're an idiot.

[Blizzlockable]

@UnitSe7en I am? How so?

[UnitSe7en]

@Blizzlockable By comparing this to DF, firstly. Secondly the nature of your comment was both insulting towards "The7thINFANTRY" and Introversion.

[AvonsSpoon]

@UnitSe7en You're very wrong. His comment was in no way disrespectful to anyone. And Introversion stated on their blog that they were very heavily influenced by Dwarf Fortress when making this game.

[Blizzlockable]

@UnitSe7en Well you could obviously see how I thought of Dwarf Fortress by looking at this, they seem to be quite similar, I wouldn't be surprised if they had gotten the idea from Dwarf Fortress.

I also do not see how this is insulting to "The7thINFANTRY", I was simply stating that there is already a game like this, as for Introversion I didn't mean it in a insulting way, I just stated what I had thought of from what I had seen.

[DarkShroom]

@Blizzlockable oh yes these seems "quite similar" to Dwarf fortress, firstly they are both 2D and secondly, well they are both 2d, oh and you design stuff

[sinbindinchin]

I'm intrigued.

Could do with a bit more infomacion though.

[recover89]

Theme Hospital :D

[SamJ190494]

I need this game now!

[icedcool]

This looks very cool. Bullfrog inspired anything is easily awesome.

[GuildOfCalamity]

very excited for this, hurry up and get a demo to the public please

[AdamantStudios]

Looks like a better version of theme hospital.. but knowing the guys at introversion software, there will be key gameplay mechanics they're keeping close to their chest for the time being :) We're looking forward to seeing what you guys produce soon! got us excited up here in Scotland. On a side note: Well done on your success on the "Humble Introversion Bundle"

Khaled.

[coolmyll]

@AdamantStudios First thing i thought too. Theme Hospital was excellent. I hope this is too.

[Noga56]

Love this game already. Nice to subversion's pathfinding being used. They mentioned Bullfrog as inspiration and I can see it also reminds me of Sim's Theme Park. Overall very excited to see more

[navuek]

come on guys give us something !!!! at least the demo that the igf got plzzz

i cant wait

i bought the bundle for 50 $ plz have demo or something

[0PlayX0]

I hope a linux port will come this time faster

[Cioper]

Interesting idea & looks cool.

[navuek]

i love you guys!!!

[angeldacci]

Dwarf fortress with prisoner anyone?

[xGhost4000x]

Can't wait to play this.

[jvemPiRe14]

now i can only interpret the dwarves in dwarf fortress as prisoners ;c

[utubeb14]

this makes me want to play theme hospital! looking forward to this a lot.

[GameplayMG]

WOW looks awesome!

[asdfasdfsdflk]

I've loved your other games and this looks really amazing. Great job.

[momo1tm]

this looks really cool

[Xahni13]

I want to play and review the game so badly :(

[jasharin]

Looks fantastic

[llpolluxll]

Fuck. Yes.

[42Khane]

Take my money! *Throws Wallet at screen*

[Yougetnothingulose]

Man, you guys are great. It's wonderful to see developers take such an active role with their community. Can't wait for this game!

[fyrren]

Looks amazing and original.

TAKE MY MONEY NOW!

[MrTheDarkGames]

The 1 dislike was The Prison Architect and well...I didnt go well....

[SamFreez]

This looks AMAZING! If you need a tester, let me know! As a die-hard DF fan, this scratches a different, but eerily familiar itch...

[AndrewDeSalvo]

So, is it just a tycoon or something more?

[gauchebag]

a game about building a prison? that is fucking stupid

how about a game where you play as a prisoner and try to avoid getting stabbed, ass fucked, and caught with contraband

[jayzee56]

I WAS FIRST

[rosiebelsmith]

This looks freaking awesome! Any idea about when it's going to be released?

Thanks!

[CrawlspaceCowboy]

I've always wanted a GOOD prison simulation, and I couldn't have picked anyone better than Introversion to make it. I'm going to preorder this the moment its on sale.

[Darkgalahad]

I want this! Your sense of astehtics is just great!

[icywater02]

i am throwing money at the screen, but nothing is happening

[ShuddupChip]

nice dwarf fortress clone

[kiniki1982]

This looks really interesting. A departure from Introversion's usual graphical style. Can't wait to see more regarding prisoner/guard routines. I've got every Introversion game and this is as exciting as any so far.

[ViToosLuiViToon]

Looks really interesting

[saaron62]

Makes me think of Dwarf Fortress and making the rooms... lol!

[RMJ1984]

I sure hope prisoners will try and break out by all sorts of crazy methods! :D really looking forward to this game.

[ZuluSmasher]

DAY ONE BUY!

Looks awesome - please make sure its on Steam.

Will this be free or if not how much?
