JustRPG: Akella, developer of Sea Dogs, is helping you with the creation of the ships. How do you hope to benefit from this partnership?

John: Akella has years of experience with sailing ship games. And anyone who has seen their new Pirates of the Caribbean game knows they have amazing artists who do beautiful work. Akella’s art team is creating all of our ships, and we really turned them loose with huge polygon counts. The ships they’re doing are at an unprecedented level of detail in computer games – but one look at our screenshots will tell you that. We’ve been amazed at how good their work for us has been.
