Might and Delight to Publish Pan-Pan

Might and Delight, the developer behind the Shelter series, are changing hats and have turned their attention to publishing. The first title they’re going to publish is the puzzle adventure game Pan-Pan by one man band developer, Emil Berner (Spelkraft). Check out the reveal trailer above.

Pan-Pan is described as a game that “expands on the concept of environmental narrative storytelling with puzzle solving and exploration elements,” and that “adorable, cute supported with an equally enchanting soundtrack.” With all this in mind, Berner felt that it was a game that Might and Delight would understand. He explained his decision to partner with them, saying, “A look at Might and Delights portfolio tells you all you need to know. From Pid to the Shelter series, they have shown an ability to tell small, but weighty stories with charm and heart. Pan-Pan encompasses all those elements and to be honest it just felt right.”

The game will be available for PC and Mac in August 2016. But before then, Berner will release a series of developer diaries that go into greater depth about what Pan-Pan is and the creative vision behind it. Be sure to check out our screen shot gallery as well as the full press release below.

Official Press Release

Stockholm – June 2 2016 – Might and Delight are excited and pleased to finally reveal details of their first project as a publisher – Pan-Pan. The adventure title sees Might and Delight partner with independent developer Emil Berner (Spelkraft) to bring his labour of love to PC and Mac later this year.

“Working with Emil to fully realize his vision of Pan-Pan has been an absolute joy for the entire studio and goes a long way to highlighting what we are trying to build here. We’re a relatively small outfit that believes in a spirit of collaboration. Also having based in-house as part of the collective has been a massive boost for the entire studio,” said Vic Bassey, COO at Might and Delight.

Pan-Pan is an open plain adventure that expands on the concept of environmental narrative storytelling with puzzle solving and exploration elements at its core. It’s adorable, cute supported with an equally enchanting soundtrack. It’s a game Emil believes only a studio like Might and Delight understands and emphasizes his decision to partner with them.

“A look at Might and Delights portfolio tells you all you need to know. From Pid to the Shelter series, they have shown an ability to tell small, but weighty stories with charm and heart. Pan-Pan encompasses all those elements and to be honest it just felt right,” added Emil Berner.

“We’re not so much a publisher, but a partner across the board on both a personal and professional level”, concluded Vic Bassey.

Pan-Pan will be supported with a series of developer diaries featuring Emil expanding on his vision for the game in the coming months and is slated for an August 2016 release on PC and Mac.
