Game Production: Reforging the 2D Game Era

2015—an era where even pigs could take flight. This was the year when 2D games began to stir from the edges of the breeze. In the coming years, titles like Honkai Impact 3rd, Arknights, Azur Lane, and Punishing: Gray Raven would rise to prominence, bringing with them a wave of new game studios into the spotlight.
