Kot-in-Action Creative Artel is an independent video game company headquartered in Del Rio, Texas and founded in 2008 by Alexander Zubov. Consisting of a core team of three people, they developed the Steel Storm series for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux platforms.[1]

On November 25, 2010, Unigine Corp announced a competition to support Linux game development. They agreed to give away a free license of their Unigine engine to anyone willing to develop and release a game with a Linux native client, although they would also grant the team a Windows license.[2] The competition ran until December 10, 2010, with a considerable number of entries being submitted. Due to the unexpected response, Unigine decided to extend the offer to the three best applicants, with each getting full Unigine licenses.[3] The winners were announced on December 13, 2010, with Kot-In-Action Creative Artel being one of the developers selected.[4]
