Clever Endeavour Games

Clever Endeavour Games is an independent video game development and publishing studio based in Montreal, Canada. Its work centres on multiplayer party games that combine player-built courses, physics-driven competition and opportunities for people to play together locally or online. The studio develops and maintains its own games, with capabilities spanning design, programming, visual art, animation, publishing and community management.

The company's origins trace to a multiplayer prototype created during a game jam in September 2014. Following positive responses at Montreal game developer meetups, the team established the studio in 2015 and funded its first commercial game through Kickstarter. This progression from prototype to independent production established the foundation for its subsequent work.

Games built around shared creativity

Ultimate Chicken Horse, released on Steam in March 2016, combines competitive platforming with collaborative obstacle-course construction. Players build levels together and then compete to navigate the hazards they have introduced. The game subsequently reached Nintendo, PlayStation and Xbox platforms, while ongoing free updates supported its development over the following years. The supplied research reports sales of millions of copies worldwide.

The studio's second major original game, Ultimate Sheep Raccoon, applies course-building mechanics to an eight-player bike-racing party game. Players combine customizable traps and obstacles with physics-driven stunts and acrobatic tricks. It launched on PC and Xbox Game Pass in December 2025, followed by Nintendo Switch, Switch 2 and PlayStation 5 releases in January 2026.

Development and ongoing support

Across its games, Clever Endeavour combines dynamic level construction with simultaneous multiplayer competition. Its production work includes prototyping, 2D and 3D art, concept art, character animation and cross-platform multiplayer implementation. Development continues beyond release through maintenance, content updates and engagement with player communities. Self-publishing and community management form part of the studio's operating capabilities alongside the creation of new games.
