Description

Lululu Entertainment is a small Zürich based game studio, consisting of Tim Bürge, Leander Schneeberger and Aaron Abt. Together, they finished their Game Design BA studies at the Zürich University of the Arts in 2019. After their studies, they started to work in game related fields and pursued their own personal game projects. During their studies, they created prototypes for the games "Bamerang" and "Henry", which have beend exhibited and showcased at various events. Tim and Aaron are currently finishing the development for "Bamerang" while Leander is starting the development of a vertical slice for "Henry", which Tim and Aaron will join soon.

History

Bamerang

Created by Tim Bürge and Aaron Abt, the first prototype of "Bämeräng" won the SGDA Junior Swiss Game Award in 2016 and has been exhibited at various events and exhibitions. Encouraged by the positive feedback, they continued the development supported by a pre-production grant from Pro Helvetia in 2018. After their graduation in 2019, they decided to finish the development within a year of self funded part-time work. After a little bit more than a year, Bamerang launched April 22nd on the Nintendo Switch and Steam!

Henry

Henry is a game prototype created by Leander Schneeberger and Tim Bürge in 2018 as part of an adventure game module at their studies. The project was chosen for various showcases and highlights and they planned to develop the game further at some point. Together with Aaron Abt, they created a concept for a vertical slice to apply for a pre production grant from ProHelvetia. They recieved the grant in 2020 and already started early development steps for the vertical slice.
