When four game enthusiasts – three developers and one visual art designer – came together to form Game Duo, they had no idea just how meteoric their entry into the Korean gaming industry would be.

What they’re known for

Game Duo’s titles cover an impressive range of genres and art styles, from the adorable Cat Mine: Idle RPG to the stylish Little Piggy Defense to the retro MMORPG Another Dungeon.

Behind the scenes

There are quite a few recurring characters in the Game Duo Universe. Kris, the pig from Little Piggy Defense, appears as a suspicious fish in Cat Hero. And Zelda the cat archer from Archer Forest has a role in Another Dungeon.

The Game Duo team love games, and they really love animals. The art director of Cat Mine has four cats at home, Cat Hero’s art director is actually a dog person, and the art director of Little Piggy Defense has a pig doll on their desk.

Cat Hero’s sound designer created the lovely sounds in the game by playing the keyboards wearing paw-shaped gloves and mimicking a cat walking over piano keys.
