About Retro Zero
3… 2… 1… and ZERO!
Hello there! At Retro Zero, we’re always looking for passionate and talented individuals to join our journey in creating unique gaming experiences.
Who are we?
The Retro Zero team is a group that came together during a game jam, eventually evolving into a video game development studio based in Istanbul. Our passion for game creation led us to transform from a small team into a dedicated studio, focused on crafting unique and engaging experiences.
What began as a prototype in 2023 quickly gained momentum, and with our first pre-seed investment in 2024, we were able to continue this journey at an accelerated pace, now in our physical workspace.
During this process, our team successfully completed the pre-incubation program at OGEM (Game Development Center) and is now one of the incubator-stage companies at BUG Lab TEKMER (Technology Center).
What is Bullet Ballet?
Bullet Ballet is a game that blends humorous storytelling with a Wild West theme and comic book aesthetics, while combining both 2D and 3D visual elements within a single world.
It is being developed with Unreal Engine 5, and both 2D and 3D objects are entirely hand-painted in design.
What are our Plans?
As you may have guessed, we are a team that desires to implement their retrospective point of view to their products. Since Bullet Ballet appears to be our first game to be released, we are thrilled to show our ways of interpreting the past to the current and future! Apart from our main goal, we want to create games containing our signature. At the end of the day, we are a team that aims for originality.
