Karman Interactive
Karman Interactive, also known as Karman Ltd, is a web and mobile game development team behind the mobile spinoff Bendy in Nightmare Run, developed in partnership with Joey Drew Studios Inc.
History
Based in Ottawa, Ontario, Karman Interactive was founded on the experience of two award-winning developers, Mike Baker and Jon Keon, in 2012. The company has worked on a ton of projects for clients like Sony, Disney, and Mattel.
On 2018, Karman Interactive developed Bendy in Nightmare Run in partnership with Joey Drew Studios Inc and PhatMojo. The game released on the same years on August 15th and September 27th, on iOS and Android platforms respectively.
In February 2019, Kindly Beast acquired Karman Interactive during their studio expansions. In an interview Mike D would say he was now "the boss of his old bosses".[1] However, Kindly Beast laid-off below 50 employees later in the year on October 11th, including the Karman crew, which resulted in Karman Interactive going out of business. This also contributed to Bendy in Nightmare Run being taken down in the coming years.
