Andromeda Entertainment is the first publisher to super-serve the growing interest in mindfulness and wellness with transformative content and virtual entertainment experiences. Since its 2020 commercial release of SoundSelf, a "technodelic" meditation via harmonic visuals, Andromeda has pushed the boundaries of immersion and transcendence.
Throughout its development, SoundSelf earned a glowing reception from mindfulness practitioners and consumers in the medical market, leading its developer Robin Arnott to produce a TEDx talk on designing video games for a mindful world. Andromeda continued to partner with leading contributors in the fields between mental wellness and cutting edge technology, giving demonstrations at events including the Psychedelic Science Summit and PAX West.
With its latest release, Audio Trip, Andromeda merged its transformative ideals with the popular rhythm game genre. Audio Trip is a dance-focused title built by real professional dancers to deliver a uniquely embodied experience, becoming a global success in the VR market. More than just a game, Audio Trip has been rated an exercise equivalent to tennis according to the Virtual Reality Institute of Health and Exercise, proving Andromeda as a force in both mental and physical wellness.
Between its published experiences, Andromeda has seen demonstrated effects on its players with an over 200% increase in relaxation, dreaming, and discovery by registered brain waves. Andromeda understands that human life begins by discovery through play, and strives to be intentional with the types of experiences it supports. Its third, original IP, is in production by a solo developer with a big dream, and they hope to begin scouring for their fourth transcendent IP later this year.
Andromeda Entertainment believes that if we can make technology work for our betterment, then we have an obligation to do so. Therefore, we stand for transformation in games, from “mere distractions” as they are often framed – to the tools of transcendence, and we invite you to join us on our journey.
