Idea Fabrik Partners with German Games Academy

LONDON - 8 July, 2011 - Idea Fabrik Plc. (GB00B61CVK31, TI4.F) announced
today a new partnership with the German Games Academy. Idea Fabrik is
providing the academy with full access to its HeroEngine game development
platform and dedicated support for students through its HeroCloud offering.

Games academy manager, Heico Purwin believes the HeroEngine fits perfectly
in their teaching portfolio, 'as it is designed excellently to meet the
challenges of online games, and by this makes it very easy to learn to work
with.' He also commented, 'while using HeroEngine our students get very
valuable insights into the possibilities of social-, browser-, and classic
MMO-games; and they are also allowed to use all engine-side material from
their projects as basis for commercial projects. Therefore their feedback
is outstanding: our students at the Games Academy RheinMain have had very
positive experiences in terms of support and flexibility of the HeroCloud
in the online game environment. We are looking forward to having the first
results of game projects in the course of the next quarter.'

Idea Fabrik co-founder and chairman of the board Alex Shalash, added, 'We
are very excited to have been selected by the German Games Academy to
actively participate in the education of future talent in game development.
Our company strongly believes that many successful games will be created by
freshly minted developers with new innovative ideas. We realize the
significant value in seeding the developer community with young HeroEngine
ambassadors.'

Knut Brockmann, the lead lecturer of Game Design noted that the Academy's


students 'get to meet all challenges of designing online games by using a
special, well-fitted work flow created through the HeroEngine tools', while
the engine 'allows the designers to work on their projects in an
environment very near to the later game experience, which quickly leads to
outstanding results.' In describing the HeroEngine tools, Brockmann added,
'the combination of server and client technology makes the HeroEngine
unique, powerful, and accessible at the same time - and these are the most
important characteristics for the online games industry nowadays.'

Through HeroCloud, the HeroEngine is free to use for developers, until
their games are published and generate revenues. Game developers receive
70% of revenues from their games, in exchange for building and hosting
their game with HeroCloud. HeroCloud also supports developers post-launch
with global billing and marketing solutions. Game developers also receive
full access to Idea Fabrik's advanced features of 3D game engine,
HeroEngine, currently licensed to big studios such as EA and BioWare
amongst more than 100 studios.
