Description

Currently our team is based around the world – predominantly in the United States and Europe. We are entirely self-funded by each employee working 100% for free with whatever time they can spare during the week. Most of our team members are dedicated to seeing this game through to the end of development, nevertheless. Many of our developers have been working with us for years, while some have been brought in over the past year as we began development on the Cepheus Protocol.

History

Our team was drawn together from a previous studio we worked for called Fenrir Studios, which was dissolved in the summer of 2018. The three main leads from Fenrir Studios formed their own studio (Halcyon Winds), which became an LLC winter 2018.

Taking a handful of the key developers and recruiting new employees Halcyon Winds began development on our first launch game, Cepheus Protocol July 2018 with a goal of finishing the first 8+ hours of Chapter One within 12 months. Presently, our team members are from all over the world, with most coming from the United States and Europe. The whole team works, telecommunications, with no one getting paid, yet still most dedicate well over 40 hours a week.

As for our developers, a few of them have gone, or are currently working with AAA game studios, while others have years of experience across many disciplines. We also opened our doors to newly graduated students, talented modders, and those looking to get experience in the game industry. As for our released games, under Fenrir Studios we released Dark Storm: VR Missions, which was launched on Steam Early Access. Under the Halcyon Winds banner, Cepheus Protocol is our launch title.
