​Let our imagination goes.

​The identity of Akedo Studio is closely linked to neo retro gaming concept, that's all. Our structure is totally indie. The act of playing is inherent in our development philosophy. Gameplay is, in its tactical aspects and intrigues, the essence of our game proposition.

​In 2016, after eleven years devoted to big budget games, Nico left the AAA industry to create his own gaming technology, in order to develop low and medium budget games.
