Meet Revik Studio – Two Friends, One Dream, and Our First Horror Game

Meet Revik Studio – Two Friends, One Passion, and a New Beginning

Hello everyone!

We'd like to take a moment to introduce ourselves and share a little about who we are, how Revik Studio came to life, and the journey that led us to create Fade Out, our very first horror game.

Who Are We?

We are Michele Esposito and Andrea Negroponte, two friends, concept artists, and illustrators with several years of experience in the art industry.

We've always shared two great passions: art and the world of horror.

We've always been fascinated by how an atmosphere, an environment, lighting, or even the smallest detail can create a sense of unease, tension, and emotion without the need for words.

Over the years, we've brought countless characters, environments, and ideas to life through our artwork. But at some point, we started asking ourselves... what if we could turn all of this into something people could actually experience firsthand?

That's how the idea of creating our own video game was born.

In 2025, we founded Revik Studio, a small independent studio driven by the desire to combine our artistic skills with our love for video games, especially the horror genre.

Fade Out, Our First Project

With Fade Out, we decided to challenge ourselves and take on something completely new.

Moving from creating illustrations and concept art to developing an actual video game turned out to be a much more complex journey than we had ever imagined.

Creating a game means bringing together many different disciplines.

For us, it has been a constant learning experience.

We've experimented, made decisions we later reconsidered, faced unexpected challenges, and learned an incredible amount along the way.

Fade Out is our first game, and it represents everything we've learned since beginning this adventure.

We know there are still aspects that can be improved and that we have a long way to go as game developers. But we're genuinely happy to finally share with you something that, not so long ago, was just an idea.

A Small Studio with Big Ideas

Revik Studio is a very small independent studio, which means approaching game development with different resources and possibilities compared to larger teams.

At the same time, being a small studio allows us to work in a more personal way, stay closely connected to our ideas, and bring a part of our artistic identity into every project we create.

Our goal isn't simply to release Fade Out, but to gradually build a studio capable of creating increasingly engaging and memorable experiences.

We want to keep learning, improving our skills, and experimenting with new ideas, without ever losing the passion that inspired us to begin this journey.

Horror remains one of our greatest sources of inspiration, and we hope to explore the genre even further in our future projects.

The Future of Fade Out and Revik Studio

We see Fade Out as the first step in a much bigger journey.

We want to keep working on improving the experience, listening to player feedback, and exploring new content and possibilities for the future.

We know that not everything will be perfect from the very beginning. This first project has already taught us so much, and we believe the experience we've gained will be invaluable for everything we create moving forward.

That's why your suggestions and constructive criticism will always be important to us.

We hope to build a community where we can share not only our games, but also our creative journey, the challenges we face, and the progress we make as a studio.

Thank You for Being Part of This Beginning

When we founded Revik Studio, we were simply two friends with an idea and the determination to bring it to life.

Today, that same idea is becoming our very first video game.

We don't know exactly where this journey will take us, but we know we want to keep following it, one project at a time.

If you decide to give Fade Out a chance, share your thoughts, or simply follow our work, it would mean a lot to us.

We hope Fade Out will be just the first of many projects we'll have the pleasure of sharing with you.

Thank you for your time, your curiosity, and your support.
