AKEDO STUDIO: THE CREATIVITY OF A FRENCH STUDIO AROUND 2D VIDEO GAMES AND PIXEL ART For the past few weeks, the independent video game studio has released its adventure game Nick Reckless in The Curse of The Lost Cause, which immerses you in an immersive and bewitching universe alongside a hero, Nick Reckless, struck by the curse. Created by Nicolas Juspin and Zoé Toussaint, Akedo is a fully independent and 100% self-funded French video game studio. The company wants to develop small and medium budget games. "Nicolas worked for many years at Ubisoft Montreal on major video games such as Watch dog, Splinter Cell, and Rainbow Six at For Honor. At one point, Nicolas wanted to change his working environment by touching on something other than 3D development. Nostalgic for his first lines of code on the Amiga 500, his desire was to return to more creative and artisanal work. The idea then came to create Akedo Studio " explains Zoé Toussaint, Head of Communication and Marketing at Akedo and partner of the founder.
NICK RECKLESS: AKEDO STUDIO'S FIRST RETRO GAME From 2019, the studio is working on its first platform game called "Nick Reckless in The Curse of The Lost Cause". In this 2D game, the hero takes the form of an anti Indiana Jones affected by a curse that continues to haunt him throughout his epic. The player must then avoid all the traps present on his way through completely randomly generated levels; a feature that gives gamers access to almost endless replayability. “Each environment has four levels with gradual difficulty. In all environments, the curse plays an essential role: it can be beneficial to the player, or on the contrary harmful; this element then gives rhythm to the game. In this unrealistic universe, the imagination takes over thanks to neo-retro gameplays, the magic of 2D, and pixel art ". Officially launched in October 2021, the game whose mission is to reveal players through many stimulating challenges is currently available on the itch.io and Steam platforms. "THE VIDEO GAME AS A REFLECTION OF OUR CREATIVITY"
“We want to offer an immersive neo-retro experience and convey our passion for video games and our enthusiasm to be an independent, self-funded development studio. This form of entrepreneurship allows us to make video games a reflection of our creativity, in complete freedom! " THE “LOOT ZONE”: AN ONLINE STORE TO SUPPORT THE STUDIOAkedo Studio also offers its players and Internet users an online store called "The Loot Zone". The main purpose of this platform is to financially support the studio through the sale of all kinds of objects bearing the image of its video game (sweaters, T-shirts, mugs, USB keys, mouse pads, notebooks, artbooks , etc.). From November 15 to 29 on Black Friday, the company will be offering AK’WEEKS. Internet users will be able to take advantage of a 15% discount with the code "AKWEEK15" and free delivery in mainland France for any order.
