General information

Company profile	We’re a skilled game studio specializing in game development, audio production, and 3D content. Our main project is Dwellink: War of the Nine, a creature collection game aimed at older players. In addition to our own games, we collaborate with other companies to create immersive soundscapes, catchy jingles, detailed 3D models (from houses to characters), and high-quality 2D graphic design. We’re currently seeking development funding to complete and launch Dwellink. After release, our vision is to grow it into a full multimedia franchise—featuring trading cards, plushies, figurines, and potentially an animated series.
Products & Services	Dwellink is a single-player creature collection RPG built in Unreal Engine 5, blending core elements of Pokémon with the atmospheric depth and challenge of Soulslike games such as Elden Ring. Players collect, train, evolve, and battle creatures in turn-based combat—set in a dark, photorealistic fantasy world with a high-risk checkpoint system and rewarding difficulty curve. By combining the addictive mechanics of monster collecting with mature themes and immersive worldbuilding, Dwellink fills a unique niche yet to be claimed. While Palworld—often called “Pokémon for adults”—proved massive demand for adult-oriented creature games with its record-breaking Steam launch, Dwellink targets that same audience from a completely different angle: serious tone, deep lore, photorealistic graphics and tactical depth. Our goal is to give grown-up fans the next evolution of the genre they grew up loving.
Target group	We target players 16+ who grew up with Pokémon but have outgrown its child-focused style. Most creature collection games still cater to kids with cute monsters, cel-shaded graphics, and low-stakes stories. Palworld, released in early 2024, shifted focus to older audiences—with great success. With Dwellink, we aim to continue that momentum and deliver a more mature creature collection experience.
Competitive advantages	HighPassionStudios has been fully remote since day one, cutting overhead costs and maximizing efficiency. Combined with our team’s expertise and the power of Unreal Engine 5, we’re able to create visually stunning, high-quality games—even as a small studio. Rapid tech advancements now allow passionate, agile teams like ours to compete at a high level.
Ideal Business Partners	With Indie.io on board as Dwellink’s publisher, our marketing, PR, community, events, localization, and porting needs are covered. We’re now focused on launching the game but still require development funds to finish it. Our ideal partner is an investor or VC interested in building a Dwellink multimedia franchise with us—without needing to invest much time in the project.
