Sara Steeves (Cambridge, UK), Alexandre Bandola (Sintra, Portugal), Rosie Miles (Brighton, UK) and Alice Parsons (Brighton, UK) are Salty Seadog Studio! The team behind Lost & Bound. After meeting at the Brighton Develop Conference in 2024 and discovering a shared passion for magic, creativity, puzzles and games, the team set out to make something creative together.
The team explored their idea for a Gothic mystery puzzler set in a decaying cemetery. Through weekly video calls balanced around their other work commitments, the foursome began development in October and by December 31st had completed work on the first iteration of 'Lost & Bound'. What had started as an outlet for a bit of creative playtime had grown into the solid foundations of a game.
Feeling that they had something special (and with an audience already asking for more), they decided to investigate funding and opportunities for Lost & Bound. The foursome are currently working on a plan to expand the game into a full experience.
