Sun Machine Games

Sun Machine Games was an independent Canadian game development and publishing studio established in Vancouver in 2018. Its work focused on accessible casual mobile games, combining original game concepts with licensed entertainment properties. The studio developed and published games for iOS and Android, with capabilities spanning game design, software engineering, concept art, character modeling, animation and live operations.

Its debut title, Go BIG!, entered soft launch in June 2020. Built in Unreal Engine 4, the game used a top-down multiplayer action format described as “Grow Royale.” Players competed through short, accessible sessions centered on growing their characters within an arena.

In October 2021, the studio expanded the game globally as Go BIG! feat. Godzilla vs. Kong. A collaboration with Legendary Entertainment brought stylized, playable versions of the Monsterverse characters into the mobile game. The project connected Sun Machine's casual multiplayer format with an established entertainment franchise.

Later company history

In February 2022, WonderFi Technologies announced a binding letter of intent to acquire the studio for $17 million in stock. The proposed transaction was intended to support a gaming division focused on play-to-earn mechanics. The acquisition did not close, and Sun Machine did not become a WonderFi subsidiary. Its exploration of blockchain, Web3 and NFT game mechanics belongs to this period rather than an established continuing business under WonderFi.

Updates to Go BIG! ended in July 2022. The studio subsequently ceased development operations, and its former official website became a parked domain. As of November 2026, the business was operationally inactive, although its British Columbia corporate registration remained active.
