2020
The videogame was endorsed by Gorillaz’s illustrator and renowned artist Jamie Hewlett.
It launched on July 20th 2020, along with the band’s music video.
2021
In 2021, we released what would eventually become UT Create!, an initially much smaller project called “UT Dialog Creator”. Along with a budget free, effective social media-based marketing strategy, it began to grow hundreds of installs per day.
As it gradually grew a larger audience, we decided the project should scale as well. That’s how UT Create! was born as a concept – A multi-purpose, powerful creation environment for UNDERTALE fans to bring their ideas to life.
Launching on September 8th, 2021 as an update to its predecessor, the now rebranded app gathered over a thousand installs that single day.
5 days later, on September 13th 2021, HYOCT GAMES LLC was incorporated.
As of today, UT Create! has become one of the most popular fandom apps at over half a million installs across platforms. It has received outstanding ratings at 4,7 stars out of over 10,000 reviews, viral videos made with it, a strong social media presence that cultivated several hundred thousands views organically, and a wonderful userbase.
2022
In early 2022, we would start the journey to one of our most ambitious projects to date, Funk Studio: a revolutionary platform to make and play rhythm games in a single mobile experience. Funk Studio is equipped with a powerful, feature-rich codeless editor to build fully customizable rhythm games, all within the reach of your pocket. Play thousands of unique creations made by the community, or make your own!
The development journey of Funk Studio was thoroughly documented as it unfolded in our TikTok account, amassing hundreds of thousands views while captivating the love and interest of the public.
In 2022, we have also developed AESPAD: a private notepad that secures and encrypts your notes. This prevents viruses, hackers or any intruders in your device from accessing them. It uses military grade 256-bit AES encryption, the most powerful encryption standard in the industry. Features include fingerprint login, 256-bits AES encryption, fully customizable RGB UI, dark mode, anti brute-force, autosave, auto-lock, among others.
2023
By 2023, the Funk Studio audience had grown large enough to launch a 3 month pre-registration campaign to build an install base before the initial release. This strategy paid off, and in July, the project saw a strong first release as an off-line rhythm game maker on Google Play Store becoming the top 1 music game in Germany, Italy, and Sweden at the time of launch.

In May 2024, UT Create! saw its Apple App Store release for iOS and MacOS, as part of our expansion plan. Featured in the top 110 Graphics & Design apps, it has received huge public acclaim holding a near-perfect rating of 4.8/5 stars out of over 500 reviews and 100,000+ installs.
In June 2024, we launched “Digital Circus Maker” on the Apple App Store: a mobile app to bring to life the most enchanting stories and scenes featuring the characters from the beloved animated series.
