"This funding will enable us to prove we can redefine game development, and challenge the misconception that AI is here to replace, rather than enhance, human creativity. Our goal is to push the boundaries of interaction and immersion for our players, while making work more interesting and secure for developers. We believe our approach will create more jobs while elevating each individual on a team to have more impact and influence on the game they are making. Our belief is that by harnessing AI, smaller teams can become as efficient as, if not more efficient than, the largest video game developers, allowing them to create dozens of games. We are excited to continue this journey with the support of our new partners."
