Our passion for adventure games precedes everything. When we decided to evolve The wardrobeOur goal was to create a video game that would take inspiration from the masterpieces of the genre, such as: Monkey island, Day of the tentacle, Sam & Max: On the streetand so on, but to make it modern, bring in some black humor. This is like The wardrobe was born and talked about two friends that even death cannot keep away.
Our protagonist is Skinny, a boy who was accidentally killed by his best friend Ronald. After the accident, Skinny’s body was brought back to life by a mysterious being who was forced to live in Ronald’s dressing room forever. Like a skeleton in a closet. In order to save his best friend’s soul from eternal damnation, Skinny will be forced to reveal himself to Ronald and convince him to face his guilt.
In short, it’s easy to see that we wanted to create something very special, with a story that allows us to work a lot with the dark humor mentioned above. But above all we wanted to do it The wardrobe A game that makes quotes its strongest part: there are plenty of references to pop culture and geeks to keep the generations of the 80s and 90s happy.
We hit the Xbox consoles four years later The wardrobe‘s first release that took place on Steam and Switch. Initially, we focused on the PC and the Nintendo Switch, which was then ported the following year as the adventure game genre has always been linked to a computer. Over the past few years we have found that these categorizations no longer exist and that gamers want to try everything everywhere. The same adventure games have landed on Xbox in the past few years and enjoyed great success. That’s why we said to ourselves: “Why not?”
We are now committed to our next game, which we have been developing since 2019, and we aim to complete it in the coming months so we can enter the gold phase for fall this year. This will be an adventure game too, but with some additional competitive elements that will allow us to create a whole new type of sport made up of power-ups, skills, special abilities and characters that can be customized. It’s called Extra coin and this time we’re going to make sure it gets to consoles as soon as possible after it first launches on Steam.
This time around, the black humor is put aside a bit because the goal is to focus on a more emotional story that focuses on abandonment and virtual worlds, and sandwiched between a second life and alienation from the real world.
