Populous Resurrection was created by Wildman Productions. It is a matchmaker that has many more built in features than the populous reincarnated matchmaker, but not that many people that play on populous reincarnated have seen the abilities of populous resurection.

History

Warg started Wildman Productions around the last year. Then after unhappy chat with The Gabber, Warg started up his own matchmaker that the Wildman Productions staff got involved in. The first matchmaker was made by Doktor but discontinued after a while. Then Koen came in at the last minute to make the Second Matchmaker which was released.

Staff

Warg made a lot of the graphics and decided how the matchmaker should look. Koen then made the engine and a beta working matchmaker that was released. Warg and Koen then both programmed more of it with additional add-ins by TedTycoon. Many of their beta testers also had a great help sneaking out bugs in the matchmaker.

The Site
