Til aka Albatros is the lead level designer of Zeitgeist. He's also the main author of the Zeitgeist background story, game design and press work are also largely in his responsibility. He also creates textures and models for the game. After years of designing levels, mostly for DoD:S, where his name might sound familiar to some people still, he started writing on "Zeitgeist" in summer of 2008.

Besides his work on Zeitgeist, he's always keeping busy creating / editing levels for various other games and modifications like Resistance and Liberation, Ham and Jam, Raindrop, Canvas or Nuclear Dawn.

He's studying laws at the Eberhard-Karls-University in Tübingen since 2006.

The job of 3D modelling is currently done by Patrick (Nauz). Furthermore he is responsible for designing the homepage of Zeitgeist. In the past he mainly helped Til (Mapper) out with map-details, but he will also create the weapons for Zeitgeist prospectively.

Nauz gained his first modding-experiences in a Half-Life 2 Deathmatch modification called "FragOut!", in which he modeled, textured and animated all weapons. He is also helping another Half-Life 2 modification called "The Gate 2" out doing some smaller modeling jobs.

Patrick is studying Digital Media (Games & Animation) at the Unviersity of Applied Scienes Darmstadt since October 2010.

Chris has been fascinated with computers and programming since his childhood. He discovered the Source Engine in 2008 with Garry's Mod, where he learnt a lot about modeling, mapping, the Source SDK and much more.

After goofing around with some projects there, he focused on mod development (primarily on programming and the Source codebase), until he eventually joined the Zeitgeist team in 2011 to put his knowledge of the Source Engine to good use. His main job is programming and solving technical problems.

Chris is currently studying "Informatics: Games Engineering" at the TU Munich.

Born in 1971 in northern Germany, Stephan combines a whole lot of creativity with Experience. He currently creates advanced detail-, vegetation and dynamic props for Zeitgeist, helping to improve our visuals with his excellent work.
