Wir wollten schon ewig einen eigenen Game Jam machen. Warum? Damit wir Abstand zu unserem aktuellen Projekt bekommen, damit wir Ideen für neue Projekte bekommen, als Training für unsere Teams und einfach weil es Spaß macht. Freitag könnt ihr dann 4 neue Tiny Spiele spielen.
Tiny Roar Game Jam week!
We're developing four prototypes over the course of just one week, and you can try them all on Friday!! 🎮✨
Can't wait to show you our daily progress on the projects 😍 what's your favorite so far?

Die größte Freude am Games entwickeln kommt dann auf, wenn man sieht wie die Arbeit von allen zusammen kommt.

I like how the teaser starts with movie Superman's current state in the public's eye. And as soon as Krypto charges in, everything becomes bright, colorful and filled with comic accurate characters and fantastic elements. I had tears in my eyes the second Superman starts to whistle.

When I met Roman almost 14 years ago, at the former company we worked at, he was one of the Art Department Leads, that focused on training and inspiring others to grow. Seeing his game releasing, after working on it for so long against all odds, is again simply inspiring. Make sure to purchase it.

After more than seven years of developing this game, I am excited to announce the release on Steam, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch on December 19!
