About Vixa Games

Vixa Games was founded in 2016 by a group of passionate indie developers in Gdańsk, Poland. The team strives for a unique and eye-catching art style, an uncommon mix of genres and themes so their games are usually a bit twisted per the nature of the crew. Although they have a fondness for the element of silliness – quality and the studio’s motto “Life is too short to play boring games” are strongly reflected in all the Vixa Games’ products.
