If you’re familiar with mobile gaming over the past few years, you may recognise the name Simogo. If you don’t, then we’ll tell you that it’s the studio responsible for some of the best mobile games of the past few years including Device 6, Year Walk and Beat Sneak Bandit. The team has been quiet for a little while, until today.

In a blog post looking back on the past year, Simogo has revealed it wound up spending much of its time this year porting its older mobile titles to work with newer phones, however this process is proving ‘increasingly financially unviable, tiring and unenjoyable for us to keep on making substantial alterations for new resolutions, guidelines, and what have you, as they seem to never end.’

As a result Simogo is moving away from mobiles for its next project. It has a publisher and a tentative placeholder name of ‘Project Night Road’ and though there’s not much more to go on as yet, the team hope that ‘it won’t be too long into 2018 before we can show you Project Night Road’.

It’s not the first time Simogo has dabbled with consoles, working with Dakko Dakko to bring Year Walk to the Wii U back in 2015.Â
