About This Game

 

A legend is born when the stars descend on Kaikala Island and choose a young boy of the Makoa tribe to guide him through the ancient rites. But something out of the ordinary is happening, fewer and fewer young ones pass the rite that allows them to leave childhood behind, and some guiding stars have not returned to the firmament…

About Flying Beast Labs
Flying Beast Labs is a corporate division of Cateffects S.L., an IT company  founded in 1998. After getting a grant from the Spanish government to create  a content gamification platform, we decided to develop it further and start  working on games, both our own and for third parties. Thus, we created the  Flying Beast Labs brand.Working for others makes us stronger. Each new project forces us to study  new methodologies and to refine our capacity for analysis. Also to find  professionals capable of helping us to undertake all kinds of high quality  productions. In this way, we have built a network of collaborators over the  years to call upon when a project requires it.


Flying Beast Labs stands out for its great flexibility, both in terms of design  and technology, as we are used to find solutions to very specific and highly diverse problems. If we do not find a technology or system that convinces us,  we create it.
