Dennaton Games is a Swedish game development studio founded by programmer Jonatan Söderström and artist Dennis Wedin in 2012. Their company name originates from a combination of their names (Dennis, Jonatan).
History[]
Jonatan Söderström was an indie game developer known for his Rapid Game Design philosophy, who previously developed several games using the software GameMaker. on 2011 he met Dennis Wedin (Singer of the band Fucking Werewolf ASSO) and they started developing the freeware game Keyboard Drumset Fucking Werewolf as a videoclip-game for the song KEEP MY ADRESSE TO YOURSELF, CAUSE WE NEED SECRETS.
Söderström said in an interview that he needed to start making money off of creating games, so he decided to undertake a more sizeable project. He contacted Dennis Wedin again, and together they formed Dennaton Games, after which they began the development of Hotline Miami[1].
Niklas Åkerblad ("El Huervo") although not considered an "employee" has done music for the duo.
