About Pixel Dash Studios

Pixel Dash Studios is an independent video game development and interactive digital media studio based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Founded in 2011, the company develops original games, provides co-development and work-for-hire services, and builds custom interactive software for entertainment, education, and industrial training. Its work spans PC, consoles, mobile devices, web platforms, and virtual and extended reality.

The studio works across engineering, art, and design, with capabilities ranging from individual feature development to full product ownership. Its production services include 3D modeling and animation, interface and user experience design, visual effects, and cross-platform porting. Porting and remastering work encompasses visual upgrades, control changes, and compliance with modern platform requirements.

Games and co-development

Road Redemption, developed with EQ-Games, is a vehicular combat racing game conceived as a spiritual successor to the Road Rash series. Following a successful Kickstarter campaign in 2013, it launched on Steam and subsequently reached PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android.

Pixel Dash has also contributed to projects including Clockwork Revolution, Wasteland 3 and its The Battle of Steeltown expansion, The Bard's Tale IV, and The Mage's Tale. Its broader collaborative portfolio includes the interactive streaming project The Walking Dead: Last Mile, RWBY: Arrowfell, the NFL PRO ERA VR series, Synth Riders, Final Fury, and Journey to Foundation. These projects reflect work across conventional games, immersive experiences, and interactive streaming formats.

Interactive experiences beyond games

The studio also creates serious games, enterprise e-learning applications, and custom software. Its collaboration with ExxonMobil and Louisiana Economic Development produced immersive VR workforce safety training systems, applying interactive development to industrial learning.

For film and television, Pixel Dash developed promotional VR experiences for Orion Pictures' Child's Play reboot and Bill & Ted Face the Music. It also collaborated with Top Right Corner on digital virtual stage sets for Fox's The Masked Singer, extending its digital production work into television environments.
