Hello everyone,

Our latest video, Iga's Lair, is now online.

We met with Koji 'IGA' Igarashi, who founded his company to begin development on Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, answering fans' long-time demand for a new 2D side-scroller action game. IGA turned to Kickstarter in order to develop the game, raising more than $5.5 million in 2015.

As he reflects back on the story behind the game, he was joined for dinner by Yohei Kataoka, the creator behind "Tokyo Jungle", a title set in a dystopian universe that was funded through Sony's former "Game yaro-ze" program that focused on finding new talent in the industry.

Thank you for your support and we hope you'll enjoy!
