History

A Sweet Studio were looking at the co-op genre and felt something was missing… And the idea of was born. The inspiration came from co-op games, MMO´s and ARPG and the game has elements from the different genres and with a lot of action.

“We wanted to make a co-op game with great boss battles, like MMOs, but without all the grinding and to add more intense action” says one of the founders and creatives, Gustav Linde.

“This game is even harder than Dark Souls” shouts twitcher Ekveel during an intense battle in scalpers.

“We hope to give the co-op audience a really hard and fun gaming experience, and with new exiting concept instead of more zombie and aliens shooters. We love shooting cute animals and blowing things up, and hopefully our audience too” Says Mattias Högvall, Art Director and co-founder at A Sweet Studio.
