It was founded by creative director Caroline Marchal, formerly of Quantic Dream, in November 2017.

History
[edit | edit source]The company was opened by creative director Caroline Marchal on 8 November 2017, who previously worked as a lead game designer on Quantic Dream's Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two Souls, to produce "rich narrative games and experiences" for "people who love shows like Breaking Bad or Fargo but who do not necessarily game".[2][3][4] Marchal told PCGamesN that the studio is "aiming at the TV audience – people who watch Netflix or HBO. We're hoping to bring that quality to gaming, with complex characters and accessible yet deep gameplay."[5]
A month later, the company hired three senior staff members: Ronald De Feijter as technical director, Steve Kniebihly as cinematic director, and Charu Desodt as production director.[6] They signed a publishing deal on 29 January 2018 with Sega for an untitled interactive game;[7] the deal was canceled in July 2019, yet the development of the game proceeded.[8][9] The company had 20 employees by July 2018.[10] Their debut game As Dusk Falls was announced at the Xbox Games Showcase on 23 July 2020.[11] The game is a multi-generational story about "two families whose trajectories collide in the Arizona desert in 1998."[12] It was released on 19 July 2022 on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and Microsoft Windows.[13][14] The number of employees was reported as 40 in July 2020.[15][16]
