Otta's take

Xav Kearney headshot

Xav Kearney

CTO of Otta

While CEO, Dino Patti, worked on single-player games such as Limbo and Inside, he wanted to find a way to turn these games into shared multiplayer experiences. Coherence was founded; an open source platform with the goal to democratize connected game development.

The Coherence team includes veterans from DICE, Unity, and Playdead. This coupled with it being built with powerful editor plugins and visual tools, meaning less experienced developers are empowered to explore connected game designs, positions Coherence as an exciting an accessible platform for a variety of game developers to design freely.

Earlier investment, led by Firstminute Capital, has been invested into building strategic satellite offices in other cities that are home to larger developer communities.
