Our Story

Creative Bytes Studios is built on the idea that together we can make incredible things that we can’t do as individuals.

The company was founded in 2013 in St. Catharines by Paul Caporicci and Shawn Jackson, who each spent a decade working for several AAA studios. The founders were attracted to the Niagara Region for its balanced quality of life, amazing access to talent and close knit community of other indie game devs. At Creative Bytes, we make high-quality, engaging games where the player’s experience is our primary focus. Since we have started, Creative Bytes Studios balances it’s time between making its own games for consoles / PC and helping other developers finish their games.

Our Beliefs

A GREAT IDEA CAN COME FROM ANYWHERE

Although each team member has their own expertise, the free exchange of ideas is fundamental to all aspects of development: from game concept, to tone and art style, to feel of gameplay.

 

ITERATION IS OUR GREATEST TOOL

We know how important iteration is to create the best games possible and are constantly finding ways to incorporate that mentality into our production.

 

TO IGNORE MISTAKES IS TO IGNORE OPPORTUNITY

We believe that the evaluation of failures accompanying game development provide opportunity to learn about our team, our process, and ultimately improve the quality and appeal of our games.
