Happy 2025, everybody!

HAPPY END OF 2023, PEOPLE!

Hello, people! How was your 2022?

Hello, everybody! How have you been? We're doing PRETTY WELL! Closing this crazy 2022 celebrating And that's not only because our football team won the World Cup, but also because we have just released a new game on Steam:
Out of Bounds is a peculiar title that was originally created for a game jam the past year (Epic Megajam 2021). As a solo dev, I had 7 days to create a game that was later released for free on Itchio. Since I liked the result of the jam, I decided to keep working on that idea for the next months and also some great devs (former colleagues from other projects) joined me to get the best results in visuals (Viktor Ahmed and Claudio "Scuzzo" Sagrera) and audio (David Levill)

Hello, people. How are you? It's been awhile. Tobias Rusjan here from Doorways, Hellbound and Saibot. I wanted to let you know about the projects in which we're currently working at Saibot Studios. Let's start with the one next to release...

THE BLACK HEART (OCT 2021)

OUT OF BOUNDS (EARLY 2022)

ARRAN: THE BOOK OF HEROES (APRIL 2022)

Hello, everybody. How are you? Today is the non-official 10 year anniversary of Saibot Studios. A whole decade!
On March 19th of 2011, while I was still working for other local game development companies, I took the time during a trip with my mother to El Palmar (Entre Ros) to start conceptualizing what ended up being our first game Doorways. That same year we had the chance to create a prototype, then I started my own studio with the support of my Uncle Ivn and we called it Saibot. Officially, in March of 2012 we started working full time in my room-office located in the town of Caballito (Buenos Aires). Too many things happened since then: a lot of fails, some success, but tons of amazing experiences at the end of the day... So below I'm sharing with you some of those old concepts I did during that weekend of 2011



I recommend you to check out the interview I had last week for Extragamersarg (sorry, it's in spanish), so you can know a little bit more about our beginnings: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yeJEzLLmYSk And I invite you to the second part coming tonight at 6pm (PDT). It will be live both at You Tube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCokGC2Tj8daGhoApuhN65ag And Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/extragamersarg Thank you once again for your amazing support, guys. Take care! Tobias

Hello, everybody! And happy new year! We have a 2020 recap video for you, including all you need to know about Hellbound, The Black Heart and the future of Saibot Studios. Check it out! https://youtu.be/4XNlS8nNaNQ And don't forget the end-of-the-year sales for all of our titles: https://store.steampowered.com/app/753590/Hellbound/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/1431780/The_Black_Heart/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/383930/Doorways_Holy_Mountains_of_Flesh/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/311250/Doorways_The_Underworld/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/248470/Doorways_Prelude/ Thank you once again for your awesome support. Have you all an amazing 2021! Tobias Rusjan

Hello everybody! How are you? The Black Heart, the fighting game created by Andrs Borghi, is now available on Steam!

• The 6 main characters ready to fight
• The first 2 chapters of the Story Mode (Hashi and Noroko)

Hello, everybody! How are you? On October 22 we'll be publishing our first game created by another studio, in this case by one single guy: Andrs Borghi We have been working with Andrs in the previous years for the creation of promotional videos for our games Doorways and Hellbound. But in this case, we'll be publishing his own creation called The Black Heart doorways_heart https://store.steampowered.com/app/1431780/The_Black_Heart/ It's a true honor for us to have the opportunity of publishing this awesome, crazy and spooky fighting game of Andres. You can follow the game on Facebook and Twitter for more news. Have a great day/night! Tobias Rusjan

Hey everybody! How are you doing? We're doing very well, entirely working in Hellbound as always. But this time and due to the quarantine established here in Argentina because of COVID 19, every one of us is working from home Even though the project originally started with all of us working from distance, during the last year and a half some of us have been sharing the same working place. We started at the old Saibot office located in Caballito (Capital Federal of Buenos Aires), and most recently we moved to Vicente Lpez (province of Buenos Aires). So we had to set up some stuff to get back to this remote working thing, but it's actually doing pretty well so far Below you can find us in our "caves"...
Juan "Juancho" Caratino
Tobas "Toba" Rusjan
Fernando "Fercho" Muzzio
David "Deibit" Levill
Victor "Vik" Ahmed But we want to take this opportunity to tell you about the progress of the Campaign Mode of Hellbound. Today we have:

• VISUALS: 75% of the levels now have final visuals
• GAMEPLAY: 90% of the mechanics for the levels are currently working
• AUDIO: The music for the entirely game has been created, it only needs some new masters and final touches

Hello, brave soldiers! How was your 2019? Hope it was awesome as hell! Ours was more busy than ever before... But it was great! So today we have a short video recap for you, it's only 2 minutes of me talking to the camera. It's in spanish, but it has ENGLISH SUBTITLES. So turn them on! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YASo6C6CP0c And now we can tell you... 2020 is going to be the year for Hellbound! Best of wishes to all of you! Tobas Rusjan and the team at Saibot Studios
