We are a small indie game studio. We have already worked with Infogrames, Atari, Cryo and others for games like Sheep dog n’wolf, Titeuf the gag machine, Mission Impossible… As we have videogames for passion, we wanted to make our owns. This is our first independant project. The project was born 1 year ago, and we are now working on it full time for 8 months. To jauge public interest for KAT, we passed Square Enix Collective. The result was very good for a real time strategy game.
Ben is our programmer and participated in its creation. He is passionated by strategy games, sci fi and spends his free time with humanitary activities.
Ray is the artist of the team and co-created the game. He is all at once a writer, lead artist, designer and game lover. He only has to learn how to cook and he will be a perfect husband.
Estelle is the community manager of the team. She hooked Ray… Even though he doesn’t know how to cook. Also passionated by games, she is working on increasing our project visibility on social medias and is our favorite beta tester !

Risks and challenges
We believe we're creating with Kwarn Armada Tactics something different, something new.
We're doing our best to make KAT as fun as possible : we have been working the engine for a long time, we have been testing the gameplay at length with a lot of testers to get feedback and improve the game, and we also did a lot of investigations to find the visual ambiance that best fits the Kwarn universe.
Our project doesn't run any major risk : a large part of the code is done (feel free to test our demo!!), we have found THE visual identity of our game, the work is diligently planed and our graphist have stocked up a lot of coffe and chocolate!
So, except a Kwarn incursion into our dimension, stealing all our coffe and chocolate stocks (we love coffe and chocolate), the risk of a delay is very very low.
