You might have noticed my late absence, as in 2022 I joined the game designer position in a new game studio, which was a lifelong dream of mine. This was a result of over a decade of work, building and expanding MXL to its maximum capabilities, and was only possible thanks to the amazing team we’ve built and the continued support from YOU, the community, over these years, both for which I’m eternally grateful. Today I’m excited to announce that the team behind Median XL has been absorbed by this new game studio!
What does this mean:
- The Median XL you play and love will continue to operate as usual, and will continue to grow at an increased rate
- The studio’s primary interest is to learn and manage an existing community for a live game, grow it, and gain a lot of experience for our future games. Who knows, that might even mean a fully-fledged MXL-inspired aRPG down the road!
- There will be new members joining the team, in addition to the current team. This will allow us to tackle several weaknesses in our development cycle, such as more reverse engineers for engine modernization, better marketing to bring new players, better servers and more.
The entire development of MXL will be revitalized, our workforce increased, and several features we've struggled over the years (such as online stash, better web, docs) might hopefully come to fruition. We are so excited for this new chapter in Median, and hope you are as well.
The company is a small top-notch engineering studio based in Argentina, which builds open-source core infrastructure. Check it out:
