Delete: Does not make a very good case for WP:Notability, article also has had multiple issues such as relying on primary sources of information (Game Maker's Website) and WP:Spam for about 5 years now. Also appears highly WP:Promotional. BlitzGreg (talk) 11:53, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Source searches in Gbooks and news source searches are only providing passing mentions, and many are about the concept of "vertigo games", rather than this company. Press about this company appears to be mostly based upon press releases that are published on blogs and games websites (e.g. [1], [2]). Appears to fail WP:N.

That is also another issue, there are two Vertigo Games, one makes games in GameMaker, the other makes high definition educational games. So you may actually be mixing up the citations and they may actually be appearing more notable than they really are. BlitzGreg (talk) 17:50, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
