Adventures We’ve Helped Shape
Yeah Yeah Beebiss II
Yeah Yeah Beebiss II is the sequel to a game considered as lost media. As Kyonshi Hui and Jiangshi Bo, it is your quest to banish all evil in all 100 levels – 10 original stages, including the boss — a mutated mass of pure evil.
OneBody: Binder’s Tale
Built using the constraints of classic 8-bit games, Binder’s Tale provides an authentic old school experience for young and old players alike. As an orphaned battle bot named Binder, players run, jump, and blast their way across Orebody in order to reach the Floating City of Galvanstad, a hovering A.I. fortress, to confront their makers and avenge the death of their mentor.
Doodle World Deluxe
The evil King Eraser and his office supply minions had stolen the magical crayon used to create Doodle’s amazing world! Play as Doodle and travel across the world to defeat King Eraser and his minions. A child’s doodles have been brought to life in this highly stylized 8-Bit game! Embracing the limitations of 8-Bit hardware, we created an entire game with the look of a hand drawn world on notebook paper.
