Description
Dakko Dakko exists to make unique video games for the fun-loving and young at heart.
History
Early historyFrom the start it has been our aim to make games enjoyed by all ages, bringing vibrant worlds and curious characters to life with unique game mechanics. Currently we make games for PlayStation and Nintendo game hardware.
ROTATING OCTOPUS CHARACTER'The 2D Adventures of Rotating Octopus Character' was our self-published debut title, released in 2011 for PSP.
FLOATING CLOUD GOD'Floating Cloud God Saves the Pilgrims' was released for Playstation Portable in 2012 and helped establish Dakko Dakko as a leading independent PlayStation developer. Its vivid landscapes, memorable monsters and loving pilgrims create a light-hearted yet perilous adventure like no other. Now reborn for its anniversary, Floating Cloud God: Anniversary Edition refines and redefines the original with new abilities, better bosses, and a visual and audio overhaul. Floating Cloud God: Anniversary Edition is available only on Nintendo Switch.
SCRAM KITTYIn 2014 we took players to outer space in ’Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails’. This dual-wielding, wall-riding blasting game won rave reviews and a dedicated fan base. The word ’Scram’, meaning a nasty scratch, is a nod to our base in Wales.
YEAR WALK for Wii UWe collaborated with our friends at Simogo and Nintendo to bring the horror classic 'Year Walk' to Wii U. The game's puzzles were redesigned with new and inventive ways to make full use of the Wii U's Gamepad. By combining the use of motion sensors, the touch screen and button inputs, the Wii U version of Year Walk brings the game's distinctive wintry folklore to life in uniquely compelling ways.
POP-UP PILGRIMS for PSVRNew technologies demand new ideas, so we set about making a wildly experimental 2D sprite game in VR! Pop-Up Pilgrims is an adventurous, unusual journey into a flat, yet deep, world!

- "“There are a handful of delightful moments where the game riffs on the classics, but the best stages go much deeper, combining in-game furniture and collection spawns with a pulsing elegance, creating a fusion that can actually feel more like a rhythm action game than a puzzle-platformer.”(8/10)"
- , Edge Online - "When I finished Floating Cloud God Saves the Pilgrims, thanks to liberal use of the restart button, not a man had been left behind. It's a question of self-respect. Not many games can make you feel like that. (9/10)"
- , Eurogamer - "The way Scram Kitty challenges you to master every aspect of the control system and marry it with your knowledge of the weapons and your enemies is not just reminiscent of Treasure but other top tier action games like Bayonetta and Dark Souls."
