Swedish Game Studio Expands - Moves Into New Office in Ebbepark

The studio currently consists of around ten people, many of whom were recruited from Linköping University and the local game development program Valla Game Education.

“We’ve been building steadily and sustainably for many years, and now feels like the right time to scale up even further,” says Robin Gylling, Studio Manager at Fancade AB.

Fancade is both a gaming platform and a creative tool where users can play, create, and publish their own games. The platform has grown into an international success within instant games and user-generated content. Among the company’s most successful titles are Drive Mad and Longcat.

One of the fastest-growing titles is the hit game Drive Mad, which according to the company has now been played more than 400 million times across web and mobile platforms.

“Drive Mad continues to grow rapidly on a global scale and reaches a very broad audience,” says Robin Gylling.

Fancade was originally created by Swedish game developer Martin Magni and has over the years built a strong community of both players and creators. The platform was also recognized by Google Play with the “Best Innovative” award in 2020.

The company just hosted a housewarming party in its new office, where much of the local game industry gathered to celebrate the studio’s success and the continued growth of Linköping’s game development scene.
