Storm in a Teacup likes to move fast. Just over a year ago, the studio didn't even exist - now, it's showing off its debut game, the first-person, story-driven puzzler Nero, behind closed doors at Gamescom.
Think that's impressive? It's nothing - at March's GDC, it took a build of a game that had been in active development for less than a month and managed to stir the interests of several big publishers and platform holders. This is a studio that gets things done, quickly.
So what is Nero, and who are Storm in a Teacup? The developer is an all-new outfit, based in Rome and comprised of experienced Italian professionals, as well as a handful of staff from overseas. They pride themselves on being professional, and on being one of the few developers, alongside Milestone, making console games in Italy. It's a good opportunity to raise the profile of Italian development," says co-founder Alberto Belli. "It's a good moment to try and raise the bar."
