History

Dragon's Brew launched on Kickstarter in mid-2024, successfully raising just over £100,000. The campaign exceeded its goal in under 48 hours and unlocked multiple stretch goals.

Development began in early 2024 by indie studio Radic Creative, with the vision of blending the nostalgia of pixel art games with a fresh twist. Inspired from other pixel art games and a real-life board game cafe the idea of Dragon's Brew came to life. Since then, it has evolved through community feedback and backer input, with alpha testing beginning in March 2025.

Key milestones:

• 2024 – Concept, prototyping, and Kickstarter launch
• 2025 Q1 – Alpha release to backers
• 2025 Q4 – Beta release to backers
• 2026 – Planned full release on PC, Mac, Switch, Playstation and Xbox

About Radic Creative

We're Radic Creative - an indie game development studio based in Southampton, UK.

What began as a hobby for our founder Brad - combining his background in graphic design with a love of games and pixel art - quickly grew into something much bigger. After launching Dragon's Brew on Kickstarter, we were blown away by the response, which gave us the opportunity to go full-time and develop our first official game.

Now, with a growing and supportive community behind us, we’re on a mission to create feel-good games that blend nostalgia with fresh ideas.
