Sparty93 Studios releases first iOS game, Katoomba
Swiping to save the world, this father, son team has created a classic
July 21, 2022 - A weekend project in 2018 between a father and son has turned into full fledged game studio releasing its first title - Katoomba. The passion to understand how mobile games were made lead Rob and Miles Marchiori to log on and get developing. After a few learning experiences with different concepts and platforms, they decided to make a proper run at a tier 1 mobile app and studio launch. With a clear vision to create a beautiful game, with simple fast paced mechanics and a dash to survive as long as you dare, Katoomba was born along with Sparty93 Studios.
Katoomba is an endless action game set against the beautiful Katoomba Mountains. The world does not know why poison drops are raining down on Katoomba. Your only defence is to swipe with your "tails" and tap with your "booms" to keep the poisoned drops from hitting the ground. Don't hit any pure drops, as the world needs all of them to survive. It's the perfect game to challenge friends see who can last the onslaught longest.

Every day that passes in the game brings a new progressively harder season. At the end of every year is a bonus level where you find out that aliens might be playing a role in poisoning the drops. Play hard enough and you can capture an alien and use them to help you defend Katoomba. The game offers endless play and a surprising depth of story as you progress through increasingly difficult days and season with new game dynamics throughout.
“With the launch of Katoomba, we are not only introducing players to the hyper-focused and challenging gameplay of a short duration survival game, but to a surprisingly deep storyline and world. This combination is new to the swipe and survive genre, and has incredible potential for future growth of the Katoomba world.” said Rob Marchiori, Sparty93 Studios Founder. “We didn’t compromise any design detail and worked incredibly hard to tune the game to be very challenging but never too hard to progress.” said Milo Marchiori, Lead Creative Director and Co-Founder.
Katoomba is free to play and initially available for iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/katoomba/id1039592294
