In 2014, Andrew Shouldice decided it was time to pursue his dream of developing a video game that paid homage to his formative experiences of the medium. He wanted to evoke the wonder and mystery of those early adventures that left so much unspoken, so much unknown; titles that came with extensive manuals that only aroused his curiosity further.

Development began in earnest in 2015 and seven years later he achieved that goal, as Tunic was released to a rapturous reception from players and critics alike.
