AuthorDigital Launches Adept Games
Meet the new team.
AuthorDigital, an independent game company co-founded by Serena and Jason Robar with Bill Roper, launched a new IP development studio Adept Games with the help of investments from Super!com.
A $5.5M deal with Super!com will help the newly launched Adept Games develop state-of-art products for players worldwide. Bill Roper will guide Adept Games as Chief Creative Officer (CCO) on a new and original franchise. Serena Robar joined the team as Chief Executive Officer (CEO), while Jason Robar is Chief Product Officer (CPO).
Oleg Sambikin, Nikita Vladimirov, Nikolay Bondarenko, and Anna Grigorieva also joined the core team (previously worked on 4Game (Lineage2) and GameNet (Black Desert Online)).
"We've spent the past few months assembling the core of a veteran game company," said Roper. "Many of us have worked with each other several times before, so it's been like getting a great band back together. We're also excited to bring on and learn from a wide spectrum of young, new voices. This puts us in a fantastic place to accelerate design and development while looking for a few more great people to round out the company."
"We chose the name 'Adept Games' because we wanted to convey how talented the team is at doing something that isn't easy - transmuting ideas, technology and art into fun," said Robar. "The team has an average of 20 years of game industry experience. Everyone has something to contribute from their background. Adepts learn from both their greatest successes and their most painful failures and even from those amazing projects that never got to see the light of day."
