Four Points video game company Edge of Reality — founded by Steiner Ranch resident Mike Panoff and Lakeway resident Rob Cohen — recently released their newest creation, Loadout, a free, downloadable, multiplayer shooter game.
Loadout, which combines stylized cartoon-esque art with a literally endless supply of weapon and character customization options, was years in the making.

The game was released Jan. 31.
“It surpassed our expectations and overwhelmed our servers (temporarily). We had over 2 million players after just two weeks,” Panoff said.
Steiner Ranch game creator Mike Panoff and his River Place company, Edge of Reality, released on Jan. 31 their newest creation, Loadout.
The game started as a prototype for another potential project that never panned out. But the developers at River Place-based Edge of Reality were hooked and continued to build Loadout as an original title. After four years, the game was ready for release.
Panoff proudly characterizes the process as, “a product of the collaboration of ideas from all 50 or so people who worked on it, not just the original prototype team or the leads.”
