Senior Material Artist

Meet Our Studio

Back in 2012, a bunch of game industry veterans from Ukraine started Vostok Games. Today, we are a full-scale game-making crew with several released games in the portfolio. Lately, we've been secretly working on something new and cool.

Our mission is to create games that delve deeper into topics like science, ecology, human-nature relationships, modern life, cruelty, and spirituality.
