We’ve been quiet for a bit, but that’s only because we’ve been busy. Really busy.
Across our Singapore, Jakarta, and Manila teams, we’ve had our heads down, building new worlds, breaking systems, fixing them again, and chasing that magic spark that makes games unforgettable. So today, we’re pulling back the curtain and letting you in on what’s been cooking at Aurelia Studios.
Let’s jump right in.
