The studio was founded by Wim Reygaert and Xander Clerckx in 2021.
Wim spent most of his career creating music and films but has always been passionate about emerging technologies and VR. Xander worked as a technical artist in 3D animation and developed VR projects in his spare time.
Their first title, Painting VR, originated from one of Xander’s side projects during the 2020 lockdown. After its release on Meta App Lab in 2021, it was enthusiastically received by both users and the press, and the founders soon began expanding the team.
Over the years, the studio grew to a team of over 10 people, continuously exploring new ways to nurture creativity through virtual reality.
They have released several new apps, continue to enhance Painting VR, and Vandalizer, and are hard at work on upcoming titles.
