- Award-winning animation studio known for Secret Level and groundbreaking Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse visuals - Previously developed the colorful roguelike puzzler Let’s! Revolution! - BUCK Games division launches parallel to Netflix's The Electric State: Kid Cosmo release
If you're anything like me, watching Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse likely left you awestruck at BUCK's animation mastery - the kind of jaw-dropping work that makes you reevaluate your career choices while these creatives keep delivering knockout projects (especially their Love, Death + Robots episodes and Secret Level venture). Exciting news awaits - this acclaimed animation powerhouse is diving deeper into gaming.
The freshly minted BUCK Games division makes its debut coinciding with Netflix Games' launch of The Electric State: Kid Cosmo - an intriguing meta-game experience tied to the upcoming film.
While establishing BUCK Games marks a new chapter, the studio isn't exactly new to interactive experiences. Their previous release was Let’s! Revolution!, a vibrant roguelite puzzler demonstrating their creative flair. With twenty-plus years crafting animation and design for clients including Apple, Riot Games, and Microsoft, their pedigree speaks volumes.
Given their remarkable track record, we can confidently expect mobile titles bearing BUCK Games' stamp to maintain – if not surpass – their established quality standards.
"Creating a game that exists within a broader cinematic universe presented unique challenges requiring our team's adaptability and creative problem-solving," shares Michael Highland, Creative Director of BUCK Games. "We embraced an ambitious, unconventional vision from the outset, and our collaborators pushed us to refine it to its full potential."
While waiting for BUCK Games' next moves, you can dive into The Electric State: Kid Cosmo via Netflix, or explore our selection of top Netflix mobile games.
