John Netzel (ComMieDog)

Chief Engineer

John got his start in game development by modding the game Red Alert 2, making snipers that shot thermonuclear bullets, a very devastating and hilariously overpowered weapon. He then went on to work on mods for Generals and Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars. He provided most of the coding for CnC: All-Stars and C&C: The Forgotten, as well as working on Tiberium Secrets.

As the Lead Engineer at Honor Games, John aims to cast off the training wheels of modding and take the reins of video game programming. John promises to use this power for good, not evil, and create games that just work.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Vultures is a game that combines the elements of an economic and manufacturing simulator such as Factorio and Production Line. The game takes place in real time, with players put in charge of a manufacturing corporate empire. Players are responsible for buying plants and equipment, hiring labor, and buying and selling raw materials and finished goods.

The ultimate goal of a player in Vultures is to be the last company still in business (buying out or bankrupting your competitors) or at least the biggest by the end of the simulation.

Vultures aims to satirize corporate culture and the manufacturing process. Vultures will keep players engaged, switching between the two simulations to keep either one from becoming stale too quickly.
