Bounder Games company

Bounder Games is an independent game studio in Scotland, founded by Sarah Herzog, Roy Stevens, and Levie Drysdale with the aim of creating vibrant, tactile games that delight the mind and the senses.

History

Bounder Games was founded in 2014 by Sarah Herzog, Roy Stevens, and Levie Drysdale, shortly after their graduation from University of Abertay in their respective fields (programming, design, and audio). They formed a team and pitched a set of small scale game ideas that would show off their style. Armoured Engines was the result of this pitch, and the team got to work, squeezing in development around full time jobs and other projects. Along the way, while looking at abstract diagrams of train systems, Sarah suddenly realized how they might be superimposed over a grid to make an interesting puzzle game, and Combo Carts was born. The team temporarily switched focus so as to complete Combo Carts quickly, in hopes of generating revenue to cover team expenses. Combo Carts was released in 2014, and the team is now back to work on Armoured Engines, to be released in late 2015.
