Pixpil is a small indie games studio located in Shanghai.
We opened our Shanghai office doors in early 2013 with only 3 people. Using a game engine of our own making, we started development on our game, Eastward. Our pixel art style was influenced by 90s – 00s Japanese animation, and the game’s narrative-driven RPG gameplay was inspired by our joint love of games such as the Mother and The Legend of Zelda series. Since starting work on Eastward we have grown in size to 10 members, as we work towards launching the game on PC and Mac.
