Sloclap est un studio indépendant fondé en 2015 à Paris. Nous sommes actuellement autour de 80 salariés pratiquant tous les métiers du jeu vidéo, collaborant chaque jour sur les mises à jour de contenu de notre dernier jeu, Sifu, ainsi qu'à la production d'un nouveau projet non annoncé.

Nos projets sont des jeux d'action à la troisième personne pour PC et consoles qui partagent l'ADN de notre studio - des systèmes de jeu profonds et stimulants, une direction artistique stylisée et des animations faites à la main. La passion de notre équipe pour les arts martiaux a fortement influencé nos deux premiers projets, mais nous sommes curieux et intéressés par des genres et des expériences de gameplay différents.

En tant qu'équipe, nous aimons relever des défis, avec l'objectif de créer des expériences nouvelles et originales à chaque jeu que nous créons, avec une très grande exigence de qualité tout en veillant au bon équilibre entre la vie professionnelle et personnelle.
