Hello! I'm Nuno Afonso, and I've been working in the Games' Industry for almost 20 years. For a long time I've seen the teams struggling with bad version control systems. They are a mixture of difficult to use, slow, expensive, cumbersome to manage, not suited for binaries, not trustworthy and outdated. Ark comes as an alternative to options like Perforce and Git, aiming to take out the daunting feeling of having to use or manage version control. It focuses on gui-first approach, supporting Windows, Mac and Linux, all packaged in a small self contained binary with gui, cli and server - no dependencies, no containers, just drop it somewhere and run it. Free for indies, with perpetual license model for businesses, no mandatory subscriptions, no required cloud services - your data, your choice. It treats binaries as first-class citizens, focusing on supporting big and complex projects like video games, where repositories can easily reach terabytes. And all this while innovating with concepts like smart locking, bi-directional shelves and tight build machine integration. I hope this small introduction has aroused some curiosity, and I invite you to get it from https://ark-vcs.com/download.html and give it a go.
