FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

January 31, 2005

COLUMBIA, SC - Real Time Worlds has chosen SpeedTreeRT^TM for an upcoming game title, praising its ability to give a good balance between dense tree populations and individual tree quality, as well as ease of incorporation into the pipeline and the large and ever-growing database of trees and plants.

"We found SpeedTree to be a very robust and broad package that is well tuned for use in video game development. It's very easy to use and allows a great deal of control over the type of organics we can have in the game," said Jeff Cairns, Art Director. "SpeedTree has helped us to maximize our output of organics in the game at a minimum of cost to time and resources."

David Jones has created such global hit franchises as Grand Theft Auto and Lemmings and has hand picked his staff from his previous top selling products to create Real Time Worlds.
