Spawned from the group’s initial title (working title) Project Fury the team aims for an open and collaborative development process of games and tools from gamers for gamers. Heathen supports and leverages indie and open source tools including Unity 3D, GarageGames various engines, GIMP, Blender and more. Its projects include tools, mods and full standalone titles made available through common hubs or as contributions to the root technologies communities. With a presence available on Steam, Nexus, Google+, Facebook and of course the IndieDB collection of sites; finding, contributing, promoting or trolling Heathen work is just a click away.
