Description

ROBOTS! PUMPKINS! And GAMES! We’re RobotPumpkin Games, a young indie studio from Cologne. We are a mix of people with years of experience in the gaming industry or motivated career changers from different industries. Our first game, the Lovecraft-inspired text adventure The Innsmouth Case, launched in June 2020. Our current project, Plan B from Outer Space, is supported by funding from the Film-und Medienstiftung NRW. Our goal as a studio is to buck the trend of idle games, pay-to-win and puzzle games and instead to create interesting, exciting and unique games. We make the kind of games we want to play ourselves.

History

Early history

The idea for "The Innsmouth Case" was born in 2016, due to the possibility of creating a prototype. An interactive story, filled with fun and weird animated characters became our passion project.

After that

In 2019 we not only found a programmer, but also a publisher (Assemble Entertainment) who was happy to help with the marketing of our game release in 2020. RobotPumpkin Games was born. We secured financial support offered by the Filmstiftung NRW and officially started work on our sophomore project: Plan B From Outer Space.
