Since we were and still remain a small team, making the project a reality has its share of challenges, but we’re really proud of what we’ve built so far. The vision for Darwin Project caught on with others in the industry, too, and before we knew it, we had some highly experienced developers on board. Though I didn’t win the game jam that day, Amélie was equally excited about the idea that would eventually become Darwin Project, and we decided to found Scavengers Studio together. I participated in a game jam organized by Amélie Lamarche and had a chance to tell her about the concept.
Can you tell us a bit about some of the team's background and what brought you all together? Simon Darveau, Creative Director: Darwin Project started with an idea for a videogame reality show, inspired by the Twitch Plays Pokémon phenomenon, that entered my mind back in 2014. Scavengers has been a team since 2015 with Darwin Project being the first, uhhh. How you achieve that is up to you but as one famous battle royale themed movie once said, "May the odds be ever in your favor." Bundle up and joins us as we chat with the team from Scavengers about all things Darwin Project. Gain the favor of the crowd and the Show Director themself for a leg up on the competition. Uniquely utilizing both its players and its spectators, Darwin Project also introduces a role they call the Show Director to the battle royale spectrum. Think you can hide in a bush? Think again! Opponents will track your every movement setting traps where you least expect them. Players will need to stave off the cold and keep moving all the while leaving a trail of breadcrumbs in their wake. Inviting players to their own backyard, Darwin Project takes place in the frozen peaks of the Canadian Rockies where not only will you fight for survival against your opponents but the environment as well. Recently taking the route of going free-to-play, this below zero themed battle royale has a few ice-cold tricks up its sleeve. We’ve seen many newcomers to the genre over the past year or so but none of them quite like Canadian indie developer Scavengers’ Darwin Project. The newest and without a doubt biggest genre in gaming right now is the mighty battle royale.
