Level Headed Games
Leading the Triple I revolution as we reinvent online multiplayer for the gaming habits of tomorrow.
About
Having worked with multiple billion-dollar franchises, our team is using our expertise to make break-out multiplayer games for the underserved Gen Z and cross-generational markets. We have big ambitions, but we don’t need to burn through tens of millions to make an awesome game. We are well-connected and resourceful, and get the most out of every dollar we spend. Our first game, Whimpact! (announce coming soon), brings the repeatable fun of joyful arena party games like Fall Guys or Mario Kart, and adds long term player progression thanks to your collection of adorable creatures called Whims. When you take your Whims as companions, they imbue you with super powers. As you tend to them and level them up, you get stronger. The more you care, the better you play!
