History
History
Dreadlocks was established in 2011 by a group of students from Czech Technical University in Prague. The idea of forming a studio was based on a game engine created by them for their bachelor work. Their first project was Rune Legend, a mobile game that was released in 2012. The studio then focused on creating a game titled Enlightened, but its development was suspended when the company acquired a team that worked on the video game Dex, which was successfully funded through Kickstarter and released in May 2015. Ghost Theory, a horror ghost hunting game, was announced at the Game Developers Session 2015 and was scheduled to be released in Q4 2017. In April 2016, the crowdfunding project went live on Kickstarter. In January 2019, the project stalled as the developers have made a game engine switch from Unity to CryEngine. Dreadlocks underwent financial problems after failing to get funding from Crytek's Indie Development Fund. The studio decided to focus on smaller projects to fund the further development of Ghost Theory.
