At The Umbra Collective we feel most comfortable in the space in-between. The realm where two supposed opposites coexist, creating worlds that some have deemed impossible. We develop games determined to make you feel things, challenge your perspectives and, at times, even undermine what you have held to be objectively true. We weave wonderous influences from folklore, witchcraft and mythology into our art-style & world building whilst telling stories grounded in real-life psychological phenomena. The Umbra Collective is here to create a player experience that will stick with you, almost like a shadow.
We are Hanna, Aleks, and Jen, the all-female founding team behind The Umbra Collective. Our shared goal is to establish a studio in Munich, Germany, dedicated to creating stylized narrative-driven, atmospheric games and eventually large-scale story-RPGs. Together we bring in multiple years of industry experience, combined with a diverse set of academic backgrounds. Tufuur is a limited though ambitious first project to prove to the industry that of which we are already certain of: that we have all the tools in our skill set to tackle an undertaking as complex and wonderous as making games.
We are part of Games/Bavaria's Level Up accelerator programme.
We are a member of game – Verband der deutschen Games-Branche e.V.
