Seven months after the first teaser reveal, Afrage returns with a deeper look.
Overborne Games is an independent game development studio founded by Ali Abbasi.
It currently operates as a one-person studio, with a focus on creating original games with creative freedom and a strong emphasis on gameplay, atmosphere, and meaningful player experiences.
The name Overborne originates from the word "airborne." While airborne describes something being carried or moving through the air, Overborne was chosen to represent something beyond that — going further, rising higher, and pushing past limits.
The name reflects the philosophy behind the studio: to keep moving forward, experiment with ideas, and create experiences that go beyond what has already been done.
Overborne Games is built around creative freedom.
The goal is to create games without unnecessary restrictions on ideas, experimentation, or design. Each project should have its own identity rather than following a fixed formula.
Quality is prioritized over quantity. Games should be given the time they need to become the best experiences they can be, while avoiding unnecessary additions that do not meaningfully improve the player experience.
Afrage is the first major game associated with Overborne Games. Originally started in 2023, the project predates the founding of the studio and later became the foundation for its development journey.
Afrage represents an important part of the beginning of Overborne Games' creative direction and continues to be an important part of its history and identity.
