BUCK Expands Animation Studio, Launches Game Dev Branch with The Electric State: Kid Cosmo

If you were as mesmerized by the animation in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse as I was, and found yourself wondering what you've been doing with your life while studios like BUCK consistently deliver stunning work (think Love, Death + Robots and Secret Level), you're in for a treat. The award-winning animation and design powerhouse behind these projects has just unveiled its new gaming division, BUCK Games.

This exciting announcement comes hand in hand with the launch of Netflix Games' The Electric State: Kid Cosmo, which cleverly intertwines with the upcoming film. BUCK's venture into gaming isn't new, though; they previously released the visually striking roguelite puzzler Let’s! Revolution!. With over two decades of experience in animation and design, and a clientele that includes Apple, Riot Games, and Microsoft, BUCK is poised to bring the same, if not superior, quality to their mobile gaming ventures.

Michael Highland, Creative Director of BUCK Games, shares, “Developing a game connected to a larger world was a new challenge, and demanded adaptability and ingenuity from our team. We set out with an ambitious, unconventional vision, and our partners pushed us to make it the best version possible.”
