The new studio is embracing remote working practices and already has a team of 10 talented developers and artists in place spread about different locations across the UK.

Rocket Lolly Games Director, Oscar Clark said “I’ve been writing and talking about how to make better games for a long time, and I decided now it was time to put my money where my controller is. The IP we are working with is one of my personal favourites, and I am incredibly excited to have the opportunity to make this game.”
Director, Ella Romanos said “We believe it’s time to make use of new working practices to bring creative and emotionally relevant games to market. Working remotely has enabled us to put together a talented and passionate team, all contracted to support project-based cashflow and resource needs.
