History
Our History So Far
Our mobilegame Oil Drill was released 30 November 2013 and this game received quite a lot of attention when it was published on SlideDB.com and was ranked as one of the top 5 best games released in 2013 in the Arcade genre. During 2014 we release a few other small mobile games. Since then we have been evolving from 2D games to making 3D games using Unreal Engine 4 by Epic Games.
We have since June 2013 been developing our commercial fishing simulator called Fishing: Barents Sea, that was released February 7th, 2018 for PC/Steam. On December 13th 2019 we also launched Fishing: Barents Sea on Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4 and Xbox One.
16th October 2020 Fishing: North Atlantic was released, our sequel to Fishing: Barents Sea on PC/Steam/GoG. 30th of June 2021 we also released Fishing: North Atlantic on on XBox One and Playstation 4 and 24th of November 2021 our Enhanced Edition was released on Playstation 5 and XBox Seriex X/S.
