Eerie Canal is an independent game studio based in Boston, MA, and Providence RI. Our goal is to make creative and inspired games that are too risky to sell, and too fun to make, for gigantic studios.
As veterans of Irrational Games, Harmonix and Iron Lore, founding partners Bryn Bennett and Steven Kimura worked on a long list of critically acclaimed (mostly) and commercially successful (definitely/ mostly/with exceptions) games. These titles include System Shock 2, Freedom Force, Guitar Hero, Rock Band, Titan Quest, Swat 4, Bioshock, Rock Band: Beatles, and a game that was canceled but ended up with its own Bollywood video.
DREADLINE
Dreadline is a high intensity, single player, action role playing/real time strategy mashup. You control an unlikely and eclectic group of monsters hell bent on killing the doomed, moments before they would otherwise meet their calamitous ends in historically-inspired catastrophes. Dreadline is due next Fall for the PC, with other platforms to follow.

“Our goal is to make creative and inspired games that are too risky large studios.”
I think you a word.

Thanks!

The game look like very… funny. When do you think it will ready?
Good luck for “la suite”.
We’re thinking early 2013.
Hey guys,
First of all, the game looks amazing! I’m psyched for it! I love when developers take risks and come up with crazy ideas (which are awesome). I have set up a wiki at dreadline.wikia.com, but it is very bare bones right now. Any chance you guys might set up a forum anytime soon so us fans can have a place to talk about the game?
Definitely! We are putting a forum together very soon.
Great!
Forums are not working for me. When I click on the forums tab, it just shows a big “Forums” that links to eerie-canal.com/wp
Sorry, I’m wrestling with forum issues right now, and hope to have something up and running by tomorrow. Swing by again soon! -sk
Great, thanks!
