About Duckocide Games

Part of Rednova Digital Ltd, Duckocide Games is the trading name for an independent game development studio.

Following publishing success in the 1990’s with games such as Zero-5 (Atari ST, STe, Falcon030 and Jaguar Console), the founder, Andrew Gisby has long wanted to return to making computer games.

After a successful executive career helping deliver software and IT solutions for a number of household names, Andrew made the decision to start a new life chapter and incorporated a new company Rednova Digital Ltd (and its game studio “Duckocide Games”!)

Our Approach to Games

Over and above all else, we want our games to be fun and capture some essence of that arcade gameplay era. Drawing upon the sense and excitement from starting a game, lighting up the imagination and embarking on a story personal to the player.

Whilst we want to be successful and (we hope) make a living from the independent game sector, our drive is one of creative artistic fulfillment, recognition and enjoyment for those that decide to try our games.

If we can create some digital magic in light and sound, we truly believe success will be a welcome outcome of this artistic endeavour.

Technologies

Unlike the games industry of the yesteryear, today, there are few barriers for anyone with a creative spark and determination to build and publish a game. The internet and advances in digital and data have truly helped to open up and democratise the industry.

We have recently adopted the “Godot” cross platform technology stack for game development. Since embarking on this endeavour, it has proven to be versatile, well supported and mostly easy to use and program. Certainly, unlike those early days of game development where the only go to was machine code programming, the use of languages such as C# within Godot make artistic and creative realisation much easier.
