Swery 65 Returns To Game Development, Opens New Studio
Last October SWERY 65, most famous for leading the development of cult classic games like Deadly Premonition and D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die, revealed that he was retiring from his studio Access Games after a prolonged bout of illness.
Today, the developer revealed that he was returning to game development by opening a studio called White Owls Inc in Osaka, Japan.
He tweeted out the news:
DAY437. Finally I opened my own studio "White Owls Inc" in Osaka. I can say "I AM BACK!!". #whiteowls #SweryIsBackhttps://t.co/SqKZ9Y6Ztr pic.twitter.com/EkEgVtBTAR
