Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • The $50 million Series B funding led by Makers Fund, NEA, and a16z provides significant financial stability and resources for long-term development.
  • The upcoming open beta for Supervive indicates strong community engagement and the potential for a successful launch.
  • The company's commitment to building a talent-dense team suggests a high level of expertise and innovation in their game development process.

What critics are saying

  • The highly competitive nature of the video game industry means that even innovative games can struggle to capture and retain a large player base.
  • The reliance on a single flagship game, Supervive, could pose a risk if the game fails to meet market expectations.

What makes Theorycraft Games unique

  • Theorycraft Games is founded by industry veterans from Riot, Bungie, and Blizzard, bringing a wealth of experience from top-tier games like League of Legends, Overwatch, and Halo.
  • Their focus on creating '10,000-hour games' that are fundamentally more enjoyable with friends sets them apart in the multiplayer gaming market.
  • The unique blend of genres in their flagship game, Supervive, aims to offer a fresh and innovative gaming experience that combines elements of MOBAs, battle royales, and sandbox adventures.
