UK studio Denki looks to new make new 'accesible' IPs

The studio , famous for prolific production of games for interactive TV and other platforms plus design consultancy (the team helped out with Relatime Worlds' Crackdown), now consists of two halves - an external development team and internal development team.

Gary Penn will lead the latter with Richard Ralfe, who has led development of over 100 Denki titles, leading the external team.

Colin Anderson, the managing director of Denki, said: "The games market evolves incredibly quickly worldwide. New technologies, new routes to market and new devices capable of playing games are appearing all the time. This gives developers an amazing opportunity to reach whole new audiences and create entirely new types of game. Denki has pioneered accessible gaming over the last eight years, through the televisions in people's homes. We're now moving forward to ensure we can use this experience and expertise to work in all of the other broad, accessible channels in which people are now finding and playing games.

"By creating two dedicated development teams, we can continue our award winning work on digital television, designing and developing playable, popular titles for our partners. At the same time we ensure that we have a constant flow of new concepts and ideas from our designers, which will give Denki an unrivalled portfolio of original content for all of the new platforms, devices and channels where people play."
