History
editSerellan was founded by Christian Allen in 2011. Prior to the company's establishment, Allen was lead designer for Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter and Halo: Reach.[4]
In June 2012, after the closure of Zipper Interactive, former staff Mark Nicolino and Reed Gonsalves joined Serellan.[5]
Serellan's first game was Takedown: Red Sabre. Originally titled as just Takedown, its development was financed through a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. It reached its $200,000 goal on April 2, 2012, with the final tally being at $221,833.[6] The game was released in 2013 for Microsoft Windows and in 2014 for Xbox 360. The Xbox 360 version was delayed due to not passing certification requirements.[7]
Following Takedown: Red Sabre, EPSILON was promised to be free to anyone who had financed Takedown: Red Sabre on Kickstarter[8].
