Founded in 2014 by James Treneman, Lab Cat Games began with a long walk off a short pier. Quitting his management job to pursue a lifelong dream of making games, James took the plunge into game dev head first. Inspired by childhood favorites such as Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Smash TV, and The Chaos Engine, he feverishly learned Gamemaker Language and started developing KITE. Within weeks an early prototype had already found the fun and he was off to the races!
