A new game studio has opened its doors in Sweden, made up of a team with experience in the music, film and book industries.
Pigs Will Fly Studios is based in Jönköping and was founded by Oskar Källner, Albin Norling and Ingemar Åberg. He is currently part of a team of seven people, with plans to grow over time.
The developer’s debut game will be a sci-fi action title set in the universe of Children of the Phoenix, a fictional series written by Källner. The books follow two brothers who discover that their mother is an alien from another planet, drawing them into an intergalactic war.
In addition to game development, Pigs Will Fly will also provide music production services through a state-of-the-art studio at the company’s premises in the old courthouse in Jönköping.
The studio will be able to handle recording, mastering and mixing, including for Dolby Atmos, and with this offer it targets the gaming, film and music industries.
“This is an incredible opportunity,” said Källner, who serves as CEO. “Of course, it’s great to be able to create a game based on my own books, and the fact that the founders come from different creative fields gives us a unique opportunity to combine our skills into something much greater than the sum of its parts. Our “Our goal is to be one of the best game studios in Sweden.”
