A World Championship Achieved with Graduate Work

When we were college students, our team created a mobile puzzle game as graduate work.

The game called ‘Lynn’ started as a graduate work and provided various experiences to our team members.

For example, we won the award at the Imagine Cup, a world IT competition hosted by MS headquarters in Seattle, competing against students from other countries. After we came back from the United States, we came close to graduation and got a job. After we joined different companies, the development of this game was also naturally completed.

An Enlightenment Gained from Company Life

Three to four years have passed after we got a job. We had different opportunities in and out of the company, but some part of us remained empty. Later, there has been a lot of change in our values. We realized that the goal we really want to achieve could not be done by other companies, but by ourselves. These topics and stories have gathered us once again.

A Team Gathered to Create a New Business

Our team decided to, once again, produce an indie game that revived values and development goals for the game we had back in the days. This was when we started to plan a start-up to try producing the game.

Fast and Safe First Start

Our first goal of the project is not to be too greedy and to quickly and safely complete the launch. As the best way to do so, we came up with the idea of remaking the game we created as a graduate work under a different name, and everybody agreed. This work will now be a complete game that will appeal to many gamers, beyond the student level, and the indie game market, and clear our first mission.
