History
EllipsisThe core team met at a design jam in 2012. Enjoying their collaboration, they jammed regularly on game ideas until they happened on Ellipsis. Working nights and week-ends since 2013, Ellipsis has evolved from a simple concept to a deep experience. The team has toiled away at their day jobs to support themselves while chasing the indie dream.
Salmi Games released Ellipsis onto iOS, Android and AppleTV over the course of 2016. After wrapping up the mobile version of the game, the team went straight into development for the Steam version which was released in January 2017, featuring various new content, including a level editor.
Late For WorkWhile wrapping up the PC version of Ellipsis, Salmi Games started developing their next project - Late For Work. The game is an asymmetric multiplayer pitting a VR giant against multiple non-VR players and a playable alpha is now available on Steam’s Early Access.
GrowRillaSalmi Games started working on GrowRIlla in late 2018, while wrapping up their first VR game Late For Work. When Late For Work was released, the team spend all their efforts on GrowRilla and released it in Early Acces on September 12th 2019.
