So moved to read that I am "still loved by gamers" published on a major site. Brought me to tears, thank you everyone for supporting my 44 years of AAA games!

After most of my working life being associated with #avp, why do I not have one of these?

#gamedev #alien #predator #movies #atari

[Jane Whittaker @WhittakerGames]

Numerous sites are talking about fans having yearned for me to return to the genre.

I have not had this outpouring of affection since developing Alien Vs Predator for #Atari I share a piece of my thankful heart with you all as I create #XENO

@LC_Videoludique @AthenaWorlds thank you so much for posting this, really appreciated!

[Jane Whittaker @WhittakerGames]

So proud of the feedback we are getting on gaming sites for #xeno thank you everyone! I have not seen this much excitement since coding #avp

I honestly thought the news would go unnoticed. This morning I woke up to scores of articles, from major gaming sites to newspapers.

I am beyond overwhelmed and emotional....

The team and I are really thrilled and grateful to the massively positive reception we are receiving in the press and from you all for #Xeno, thank you!

People are asking for our website.

Please note, we are .co.uk and not the "dot com" which is not us. Xeno updates will appear on the site shortly!
