Mobile FPS FTW!
Novy is thrilled to continue working with the talented team at Hiker Games. Founded in 2009, Hiker Games is helping to turn Vietnam into a hub for innovation. We recently promoted the launch of Hiker Games’ newest title FZ9: Timeshift. In this mobile FPS, players can eliminate enemies using a special “bullet time” mechanic – which allows them to slow down time and take the perfect shot. The game’s single-player campaign mode features more than 30 missions to complete and gives players access to a variety of weapons, such as fan favorites Glock 17, AK-47, and M4A1. Project lead Phuong Truong Duc was recently interviewed by Pocket Gamer.biz's Matt Suckley! (read more)
In 2016, Hiker Games released Gleam and Eraser – mobile games that utilized a unique donation model. In puzzle game Gleam, the player must save the last living organism in a post-apocalyptic world – and in endless runner Eraser, the player is an overworked designer trapped within a own blueprint.
Novy also worked with Hiker Games on the 2015 Steam Greenlight campaign for ToyQuest (now Toy Odyssey), which was Greenlit within 24 hours!

Monster Troubles
Developed by Aaron "Heatbox" Heaton (Heatbox Games), Robots in the Wild is an imaginative take on Tetris-like puzzle-solving and base-building. Players build an impenetrable "robot fortress" to survive raids from fierce monsters that only come out at night – and endure deadly natural disasters. All audio (including sound effects and voices) was created and voiced by indie developer "Heatbox" – who's also a professional beatboxer ... and a "friend of Novy"!
