Overview edit · view history

Bedtime Digital Games is an independent game development studio based in Aalborg, Denmark. It started as a student production for the 2011 browser game Back to Bed up to Christmas in 2011. It attracted the attention of local and international press and the team decided to develop it further into an expanded game, fixing the bugs, adding more levels and bringing it to more platforms. Most of the work was done in the weekends as many team members had either no or limited time for development due to their jobs.

The game did well in several game shows and conferences and received a good deal of nominations and wins. One of these conferences became the turning point for the title. It was among the student showcase winners at IGF 2013 in San Francisco, and even though it did not take home the grand prize it received a lot of attention, notably by CAP NOVA, a Danish investment firm with experience with games. Two team members, Klaus Pedersen and Jonas Byrresen, saw this as a chance do a complete professional release and perhaps something more in the long run.

A smaller team was created during the latter half of 2013, and on 16th December 2013 the company Bedtime Digital Games was born. Finishing the game became a long trek and it also took a crowdfunding initiative for the 2014 release of Back to Bed. In the same year the team released the time travel puzzle platformer Chronology.

Since then the team has released the musical action games Figment (2017) and Figment 2: Creed Valley (2023) as well as the puzzle adventure The Forest Quartet in 2022.
