In 2021, Sad Cat Studios announced REPLACED during one of Microsoft's Xbox showcases. The reveal immediately put the title on players' list of most-anticipated titles thanks to its striking visuals and narrative premise in a unique dystopian world. Fast forward to today, when the game is less than one month away from release as part of the Atari family following the acquisition of Thunderful Publishing. This came as great news to me, as it opened the opportunity to chat with Sad Cat Studio's co-founders Yura Zhdanovich (game director) and Igor Gritsay (composer), all about the game and their journey from conception to release. Sure, we cover the game itself, but we also drill down into the lessons learned as a first-time developer, what it's like finding a publisher, and so much more.
