Derelict Spaceships, Cosmic Horror, Dismemberment, and... cooking?

Pull up a chair to the Elderfeast, our upcoming cooker-shooter where you dismember monsters and prepare their parts to serve up delicious meals! As we gather ingredients and prepare the feast, feel free to snack on some light hors d'oeuvres as they're delivered to our social media sites throughout February.

Update from Ben Wanat, Creative Director

Thank you everyone for the well wishes and interest in our new studio! It's really encouraging to see so much love and support from friends, devs, and fans.

 

A lot of people have been wanting to know more about us. Why indie? What are we making? Do we have any positions open?

 

Why indie? Do what you love, love what you do, own what you make.

 

In AAA, you're one of a thousand devs putting in Herculean effort to help create monumental software of which you have zero ownership and no job security. You work on billion dollar mega-franchises that constantly demand every ounce of resources the publisher can muster. In those environments, there is no room for the risk of new IP, for passion projects, or for new ways of working. It is a place to make money, not a place to follow your dreams.

 

Lurker Entertainment is the antithesis of all that. We are tiny. We are equal partners. We create and own our IP. We choose what we work on. We are completely collaborative. And most importantly, we follow our dreams.

 

We make things we love. We love the process of making the things we love. We love that no problem is "someone else's problem"; that the only way it will get done is if we do it ourselves. Because we love self-sufficiency and the satisfaction of pouring ourselves into something entirely of our own creation.

 

That brings me to what we've got cooking…

 

We're not quite ready to announce the game. But we didn't want to leave you empty-handed. Here's a taste of things to come. And look for more updates in February as we start sharing our progress.

P.S. Regarding employment opportunities, I appreciate every one of you who approached us directly. We do not and probably will not have any roles opening this year. But don't let that discourage you from reaching out. The dev community thrives on networking. I may not have a job for you now, but I'm happy to meet passionate devs who share the dream.

About Lurker Entertainment

Lurker Entertainment is a small group of shadowy creatures that sneakily make original indie video games while you sleep. If you listen closely you just might hear the faint clacking of their tiny claws on their even tinier keyboards. Approach carefully with both hands visible, palms up. Perhaps they will update this site soon with more information about what they are making.
