Sleeprunner Studios: Three Different Genres in Three Games
From Indie to AAA: On a regular basis, we have a look at a studio from the German-speaking development scene. This time: Sleeprunner Studios from Bayreuth. The five-person team at Sleeprunner Studios in Bayreuth, demonstrated their skills last year with Windstorm: Start of a Great Friendship - Remastered. Now it's time for their own projects, and they're tackling all kinds of genres.
In February 2020, Sebastian Kühn, Josef Buchner, Andreas Moder and Johannes Monsch founded Sleeprunner Studios in the Bavarian city of Bayreuth. But what is sleeprunning? "It's sleepwalking, but faster! There is no deeper meaning behind the name, it just sounded cool," Johannes Monsch told GamesMarkt. The four had already worked together as a team during their studies, carrying out a number of projects at the University of Bayreuth, particularly in the 'Media Studies and Media Practice' course. So they had a lot of practical experience and cooperation.
