About Us

We are a small group of Finnish independent game developers who aim to make and publish the kind of awesome games we would have loved to play in our childhood, spiced with old school pixel art and the retro spirit!

Panic Art Studios' journey started in 2011 with some fun and small mobile game development. As Hero Siege - Our flagship product Hack 'n' Slash game - started to become much more than a mobile game it grew our team from hobbyist to professional developers, artists and designers over the past decade. We take pride in what we do and most importantly we do it because we share a passion for video games.
