KeelWorks is a mall studio of 2 people who are self-taught in Unreal Engine but who worked for Pixar. They have just announced CYGNI: All Guns Blazing, an old school shoot'em up featuring modern graphics and cutscenes. The game is planned for a 2021 release on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X.
CYGNI is the work of just two highly talented and entirely self-taught developers who previously worked as Hollywood film and VFX production artists including stints at Pixar. Their impressive work with Unreal Engine soon got noticed by Epic Games and earned Keelworks a substantial cash award as an Epic MegaGrant recipient.
