Indie game publisher Thunderful just announced a merger with the studio JUMPSHIPFather of the little ones Somerville that just arrived in Game Pass. An acquisition that will remain intact “creative autonomy”
With almost 25 employees, JUMPSHIP was founded in 2017 by Chris Olsen together with ex-CEO and co-founder of Playdead, Dino Patti. Agostino Simonetta, responsible for gaming at Thunderful Games, is pleased about the acquisition of a studio with great potential.
The level of fascination that JUMPSHIP was able to generate for their first title shows that they are a team with a deep artistic vision. Expanding our roster of already diverse and accomplished talent under the Thunderful Studios umbrella is an important part of our strategy to build strong internal IPs.
