The Studio.

Dahlia Academia is an independent game developer based in Mexico, founded by Héctor Rivera (ITZAH). Our goal is to bring back the pixelated experiences that we lived in the 90’s and early 2000’s. Taking the old tools, techniques and game design of our favorite games as kids and twisting them with modern tools to create new experiences. Our influences come from old games developed by old teams such as: Nintendo: Research & Development 1, Capcom, SNK, Konami, Cave and Blizzard.
