Game Studio: Hello Games

Hello Games earned early plaudits with their enjoyable arcade racer series, Joe Danger, but it was with their sophomore IP, No Man's Sky, that they registered on most peoples maps.

It was a game that literally promised to give players an entire universe to play with, and so the unstoppable hype train started...

All gamers worth their salt knows the rest of the story that followed: out-of-this-world expectations, a painfully disappointing release, and, finally, a redemption story.

That's right, Hello Games went from a black mark in the industry to a 180 success story, all earned from them painstaking updating and improving the game's design and aesthetic into the concept that was initially promised, and then some.

So why are we talking about this flat-screen game? Well, the Beyond update, brought the game to all major VR platforms, and arguably elevated the title from just a redeemed curiosity, into a MUST-PLAY VR experience, making Hello one of the most impressively ambitious VR devs currently working.
