OUR STORY
In the summer we moved into a brand new central Manchester studio to allow for hybrid working, while remaining remote-first as a company. We also celebrated Huey's Haydn Hamilton winning the QA Tester award at Game Dev Heroes 2024.
Our PlateUp! console ports launched early in the year, followed by our CYGNGI: All Guns Blazing ports for our partners at Konami. Meanwhile we've announced porting partnerships for Sociable Soccer with Tower Studios, for Cuisineer with our partners at Marvelous and for Deliver At All Costs.
Work is also underway on several unannounced co-dev and porting projects - watch this space!
2024
We were incredibly proud to win BEST SMALL STUDIO at the 2023 Game Republic Awards. Mechinus, our puzzle-platform adventure, was selected for the MIX Showcase at GDC 2023, the London Games Festival Official Selection, Courage Cologne at Gamescom 2023 and Dreamhack Showcase. Wreck Out, another original title from Huey Games, was awarded a UK Games Fund grant.
We announced that Huey is serving up console ports of PlateUp! in partnership with Yogscast Games. We have also announced our partnership with Konami and KeelWorks to port CYGNI: All Guns Blazing to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, and our port of Ninja or Die: Shadow of the Sun to Nintendo Switch with our partners at Marvelous.
2023
Our development team has continued to expand rapidly in 2022.
We worked on Inscryption for PS4, PS5 and Nintendo Switch with our partners at Devolver Digital, GRIME for PS4, PS5 and Nintendo Switch with Akupara Games, the Burning Snow updates for Hell Let Loose with Team17, plus several unannounced projects with our partners. Meanwhile, our original games Wreck Out and Mechinus reached exciting new milestone in their development.
As we enter a new phase of growth, we've also taken the opportunity to rebrand, with a dynamic new logo representing our mission to build spellbinding games which ignite the passion of players and delight our partners.
2022
In 2020 our development team expanded further and new partnerships were formed.
We completed three further console projects in 2020 - Radical Rabbit Stew, No Straight Roads and Switch 'N' Shoot.
In 2021 our team expanded again and we completed work on KeyWe and The Last Stand: Aftermath, while forming new partnerships and beginning new porting projects to take us into 2022.
We also hired a new BAFTA-nominated Head of Design to help drive forward development of Mechinus, our clockwork puzzle-platform game set is a spellbinding mechanical ecosystem.
2020 - 2021
Huey Games was founded in 2016 by three veterans with 50+ years of combined games industry experience.
We successfully funded our first original IP, Hyper Sentinel, on Kickstarter and self-published it on PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC and mobile in 2018.
Nintendo Switch ports of The Mystery of Woolley Mountain and Silk followed in 2019, and we completed work-for-hire commissions on two VR projects and one mobile project.
We also launched our unique physical series of licensed Collectors USB Cassette games.
2016 - 2019
From Pinball Fantasies to LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens, our team have worked on dozens of hit games and have worked directly with Disney, Warner Brothers, BBC, Universal, Sega, Microsoft, LEGO, Koch Media and, of course, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo.
