About Us
Thunder Lotus is a maker of beautifully powerful video games. A passionate collective of AAA, indie, and mobile expats with over 40 years of combined industry experience and 20+ shipped titles, Thunder Lotus aspires to distill its visionary original IPs into captivating interactive experiences that the team itself would love to play. In 2014, studio founder Will Dubé quit his job as a mobile game designer with the goal of bringing an independent video game project to the crowdfunding platform Kickstarter. Dubé rallied a group talented friends and former colleagues to the cause, and the loose collective settled on the evocative moniker Thunder Lotus. Their first project was Jotun, the tale of a Norse warrior who has died an inglorious death and must prove herself to the Gods to enter Valhalla. The games unique blend of action and exploration gameplay, along with its eye-catching hand-drawn take on Norse mythology was a critical and commercial success, attracting over 1 million players since its initial launch. In the interim, Thunder Lotus developed its sophomore creation, titled Sundered. An ambitiously designed action game set in a distinctly darker universe, Sundered built on the studios strengths while pushing beyond Jotuns artistic and technical scope considerably. Thunder Lotus leveraged its growing experience, resources, fanbase, and partnerships to ensure a strong launch for Sundered upon its release in summer 2017. Over time, the teams growing maturity coalesced into a strong vision for the studio, which they proudly see as being built upon a foundation of Respect for the Player, the Team, and for the Craft. With its days as a fledgling enterprise now a distant memory, Thunder Lotus has its fifth year in the industry with significant momentum and ambition, and a recently announced third production titled Spiritfarer (scheduled for release in 2020). The future looks bright for Thunder Lotus.
