Journey to the Savage Planet is an upbeat first-person adventure game set in a bright and colorful alien world filled with weird and wonderful creatures. As an employee of Kindred Aerospace, which proudly touts its rating as the “4th Best Interstellar Exploration Company”, players will be dropped onto an uncharted planet deep in a fictitious, far-away corner of the universe. Launched with high hopes but little equipment and no real plan, players are tasked with exploring, cataloging alien flora and fauna and determining if the planet is fit for human habitation.
Typhoon Studios Inc. was a Canadian video game developer based in Montreal. Alex Hutchinson, Yassine Riahi, and Reid Schneider—veterans of EA Montreal, Ubisoft Montreal, and WB Games Montréal—founded the studio in February 2017 and began assembling a team to develop prototypes with early funding. The studio announced its debut game, Journey to the Savage Planet, in December 2018. A year later, Google acquired the studio for its Stadia Games and Entertainment division to develop for Stadia, its nascent cloud gaming service. Journey to the Savage Planet was released in January 2020 for the PlayStation 4, Windows, and the Xbox One, followed shortly by a Nintendo Switch version. Google closed Stadia Games and Entertainment on February 1, 2021, the same day as the game's Stadia release, and the entire Typhoon Studios team left the company. Hutchinson, Schneider, and three other former Typhoon Studios staffers subsequently established Raccoon Logic, which acquired the game's intellectual property and released a sequel, Revenge of the Savage Planet, in May 2025.
