About
Depreciation Guild Inc. is an indie game company comprised of Kurt Feldman and Hayden Cacace that produces games for the iPhone / iPod Touch.
“But wait, isn’t there already a band of the same name?”
Well, yes… but allow me to explain:
Once high school English classmates in the late 90′s, Hayden Cacace and Kurt Feldman’s paths re-converged in 2008 when Hayden, living in LA at the time, discovered Kurt’s band, The Depreciation Guild, through the internet. At the time, ‪disenchanted with the state of the mainstream gaming industry he was involved in, Hayden began designing his own independent titles.‬ The Depreciation Guild was simultaneously making weird dream-pop that incorporated the Nintendo Entertainment System soundchip. After the release of their freely-distributed debut album, “In Her Gentle Jaws,” the band began receiving much critical acclaim for their uniquely stylized sound and cerebral hooks. Months after this reconnection, the two had collaborated on custom visualization software for DG’s live show to excellent results. The next step seemed logical: so they made a game.
Cut to almost exactly one year later: Our first casual game, “TileWild” is complete. It’s a heavily stylized, retro-futuristic action/puzzler with tons of flashing stuff. We think it’s very fun and we hope you enjoy it too.
It has been submitted to the App Store and will be available soon, for the low price of $.99!
