Mayhem_Inc company

Mayhem Inc was founded by us, a married couple from the South Coast of Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa. We are an indie game development company, as well as creators of 3D assets for games. Indeed, our beginnings were humble - as we are completely self-taught with all that we know regarding the industry as well as self-funded. Our journey began as gamers - until we noticed a gap in the market, where developers tend to focus more on online multiplayer shoot-and-loot games, instead of single player platforms in this regard. Instead of accepting this trend, we dedicated ourselves to not sit back and complain, but to take action by becoming developers ourselves.

In our early days, we modded already-existing games, and through doing so, we had a bird's eye view of how large companies cut corners in the gaming industry, releasing games which is incomplete and requiring many large updates to fix. We then decided to not mod other people's mistakes, but to create our own games...not just from the perspective of designers, developers and programmers - but as gamers for gamers.

Some of our inspirations in the gaming world are Bioshock 1 & 2, Thief, the Dishonored series, the Metro series as well as others. As you can tell - our primary focuses are exploration, scavenging, story and high-octane action. This being said, we are currently working on our debut game which will be released on PC and console (on which we will provide more details in time) and we are planning on releasing many more games, as well as accompanying DLC's.

We pride ourselves with our dedication and devoutness to provide you not only with AAA quality games but exquisite 3D assets for your own games, which will help you to realize your vision in your own game or project.

We have come a far way from our humble beginnings - and we are now skilled in programs such as Blender, Autodesk Sketchbook, Sketchup, Paint.Net, Audacity, Reallusion Character Creator...and let us not forget our engine of choice: Unity. We are also available for commissioned work.

Our debut game, Southbound, is our current project - to know more about it, please click on the link!

As mentioned, we are self-funded - we also make and sell 3D models to help fund our game on Gumroad, CGTrader and Artstation.
