Vertex Pop

About

Vertex Pop is a Toronto-based indie game development studio. We create feel-good action games: fun, colourful, and intuitive.

We Are Doomed was Vertex Pop’s debut game, a twin-stick shooter featuring polygon baddies, neon colours, and an absurdly overpowered laserbeam. While it was only a modest success, it established Vertex Pop’s unique aesthetic, and design talent for action games.

It was followed up by Graceful Explosion Machine, a colourful side-scrolling shoot-em-up which arms the player with four unique and devastatingly powerful weapons at once. It debuted on the Nintendo Switch in April 2017 to great commercial and critical success. It also has the distinction of being one of the first indie titles on the console.

Vertex Pop is currently working on beat-em-up / run ’n gun hybrid, Super Crush KO.
