AuthorDigital is a Seattle-based game company led by CEO Serena Robar and CPO Jason Robar that has launched a jointly owned studio called Adept Games. The company raised $5.5 million as part of the deal with investor Super.com, which will help fund the new studio and strengthen Super.com’s U.S. presence. Adept Games is positioned as an intellectual-property development studio focused on merging ideas, technology, and design into upcoming games, with noted designer Bill Roper serving as chief creative officer and tasked with establishing a new original franchise. AuthorDigital says the studio emphasizes leadership values of guiding, guarding, and serving the team, and is already assembling a core veteran team alongside younger voices. The combined team totals about 30 people, averages 20 years of game-industry experience, and is 30% female. The company is beginning conversations with partners and publishers about next-generation platforms and ways to connect players.
