HoloSpark

HoloSpark was an independent video game and virtual reality development studio founded in 2015 in Bellevue, Washington. Its work combined cooperative multiplayer action games with cinematic and interactive VR experiences. The studio developed original projects for PC, consoles and PC-based virtual reality systems before ceasing operations in late 2019.

Cooperative action games

The studio's flagship release, Earthfall, was a four-player cooperative science-fiction shooter set during an extraterrestrial invasion of the Pacific Northwest. Players worked together against alien enemies using defensive mechanics and encounters shaped by dynamic AI and procedural horde spawning. The game entered Steam Early Access in 2017 and received its full release on Windows PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on July 13, 2018. Gearbox Publishing handled physical retail distribution.

HoloSpark's development capabilities included game design, C++ software engineering, 3D art and animation. Unreal Engine 4 supported its work across multiplayer games and virtual reality production.

Virtual reality experiences

The studio's debut project, The Impossible Travel Agency, launched in 2016 for Oculus Rift and HTC Vive. It presented an exploratory virtual environment that reacted to players' music, combining audiovisual interaction with an immersive setting.

Its subsequent VR work explored horror and narrative presentation. Séance: The Unquiet was a cinematic horror showcase, while The Haunted Graveyard, released in October 2018, was designed as a room-scale experience for VR arcades. Together, these projects reflected the studio's interest in both home VR systems and location-based entertainment.

Holospark LLC formally dissolved on December 19, 2019. Its historical portfolio spans cooperative PC and console action, interactive music experiences and narrative VR horror.
