VIDEOCULT

VIDEOCULT is an independent videogame studio based in Boston MA, focusing on the development of games with a slightly esoteric flavor. We are interested in creating clever Artificial Intelligences, immersive sandbox ecologies and emotionally rich gaming experiences that will stay with you long after you have set the controller down.

RAIN WORLD

Our current focus is the development of Rain World, a challenging survival platformer set in an abandoned industrial environment ravaged by a broken ecosystem. Intense, bone-crushing rains pound the surface, making life as we know it almost impossible. The creatures in this world hibernate most of the time, but in the few brief dry periods they go out in search of food. You are a nomadic slugcat, both predator and prey in this land. You must hunt enough food to survive another cycle of hibernation. Other — bigger — creatures have the same plan.
