Independent developer & publisher · Since 2011

Game after game

Displacement Studios is the original indie game studio behind countless titles on Steam, browser games, and miscellaneous publishing work since 2011.

We are and have always been the original Displacement Studios©.

How It All Began

Before the Steam releases, Displacement Studios was already known for browser games, mobile apps, and experimental software work. The move toward commercial PC releases started with an aztec-themed zombie adventure.

Greenlit on Steam Greenlight

The project was greenlit on Steam Greenlight under its working title, Aztecalypsis: The Curse. It marked the studio's transition from smaller web-era projects and mobile apps into publishing a full Steam title.

During the Greenlight phase a small community formed around the small indie game. That early group aided development and testing before the Steam release.

Published as Aztecalypse

After being greenlit, the game was polished for more than three months and released on Steam under the final title Aztecalypse. It received mixed reviews, and reached international audiences through videos by well-known streamers with hundreds of thousands of viewers.
