StormRegion

StormRegion was a Hungarian video game developer best known for the games Rush for Berlin and Codename: Panzers. They also have built their own game engine called Gepard with tools. In 2007, StormRegion was acquired by the German company 10tacle Studios AG. After a financially unstable 10tacle Studios AG ceased to pay salaries in April 2008, StormRegion lost its employees and was forced to close its Budapest office.^[2]

In 2006, StormRegion initiated a lawsuit against Mithis Entertainment, claiming that former StormRegion developers who quit the company and joined Mithis have stolen sourcecode from the StormRegion engine.^[3][4]

The name "Stormregion" is an approximate translation of the Hungarian term "viharsarok" ("storm corner"), a historical name for the south-east (e.g. Békés county) of Hungary.

In 2015, former employees Péter Bajusz and Attila Bánki-Horváth (developers of S.W.I.N.E.) founded a new company called Kite Games.
