MD Studio is owned by Edwige Lelievre, the only full-time member of the team.

Edwige is working with freelancers. Members of the core team are important creative collaborators who receive a revenue share on top of their rates. They generally work for a few weeks on each project.

So it’s not a solo dev studio, but it’s still way tinier than most game studios ✨

We don’t use GenAI on any part of the game (either research, prototype, programming, localisation or art of any kind).
