Former staff members of Mediatonic have established a new company named Kindred Spirit Games

A new game development company, Kindred Spirit Games, has emerged in the UK, founded by former Mediatonic team members.

Co-founders Megan Ralph and Joel Herber revealed on Linkedin that the company was established half a year ago. Ralph holds the position of design director, while Herber serves as the technical director.

Both Ralph and Herber were previously lead level designer and lead client engineer, respectively, at Fall Guys developer Mediatonic. They later collaborated again at the indie studio Land & Sea, founded by former Team Alto members in 2020.

At Land & Sea, Ralph worked as a senior game designer, having also been part of Interior Night and the now-defunct Sony London Studio.

Herber's role at Land & Sea was lead programmer, and he has past experience with Dream Reality Interactive and Plug-In Media.

"We’re putting our passion and skills into our first game and are excited to share future updates and showcase our work," the pair commented in a release.
