Ranking Every PlayStation Developer From Worst To Best
11. PixelOpus
Notable Games: Entwined
In Development: Concrete Genie
During the PS3 era, Sony started taking a page out of Microsoft’s book and seriously endorsing indie developers to create exclusive PSN content for them. Award-winning titles like Journey, Unfinished Swan and Papa & Yo emerged to much acclaim, yet nary was created in-house.
In 2014, the company decided to create their own studio to develop products in a similar vein. PixelOpus in San Mateo was born but they’ve only released one minor title since. Excitement has been brewing though for their game currently in development; Concrete Genie.
It’s a gorgeous looking downloadable title with interesting mechanics and bucketloads of charm. The potential to hit that balance of quirky energy, intriguing gameplay and critical recognition is high (and clearly what they're striving for).
Fingers crossed Sony have found their little in-house 'indie' darling.
