Lightheart Entertainment, founded in 2019 in Helsinki, develops what it calls "hyper core" mobile games—deep enough for hardcore players while remaining accessible to a wider audience. The studio shipped Mr. Autofire after three months of development in late 2019 and debuted the title as a U.S. test launch, where it performed well. The company plans to grow Mr. Autofire and roll it out globally later this year, while exploring the emerging mobile gaming space with additional products. Lightheart describes its approach as minimizing time-to-learn from the market, empowering teams to make data-informed decisions, and combining data with craftsmanship. The new funding will be used to expand the first game and execute on the company's broader product strategy.
