From One Dev's Vision to Reality: Gravity Circuit's backbone!
As the result of an extraordinary journey undertaken by the studio Domesticated Ant Games.
On 13th July, players will finally go on a gravity-defying adventure like no other.
Behind the scenes, the development of Gravity Circuit has been a labor of love. Led by a solo developer from Finland, the game's creation showcases the immense passion and dedication poured into every pixel and line of code. The journey began with a vision to deliver a true indie gaming experience, inspired by classic console platformers like Megaman and many others.
We had a lot of people in the community discord asking about the studio and the dev.
This is what Antti, game dev from Domesticated Ant Games had to say about that:
[h3]"Gravity Circuit's development is a global effort, with a diverse team spanning multiple countries. From the creative talents of Dominic Ninmark, the composer and character designer, to the artists who contributed to the captivating in-game visuals, the collaboration has brought together a range of skills and perspectives. While the core group responsible for the game consists of a dedicated few, including myself, Dominic, and a small team of artists, additional members such as porting staff, play testers, and promotional artists have also played crucial roles in bringing Gravity Circuit to life."[/h3]
The development process was far from easy, with countless hours of meticulous design, refining gameplay mechanics, and perfecting pixel-perfect art. The studio's unwavering commitment, attention to detail, and sheer determination have shaped Gravity Circuit into a polished gem that captures the essence of challenging retro-gaming while introducing innovative twists.
[h3]The story-telling prowess of Gravity Circuit is a testament to the developer's vision. In a post-apocalyptic world inhabited by sentient robots, you will follow the lone operative war hero, Kai. Harnessing the mysterious powers of the Gravity Circuit, Kai embarks on a quest to save his fellow robots.[/h3]
