Our story

Atomic Elk was founded by a husband-and-wife team with a shared passion for crafting immersive and memorable experiences. With over 20 years of game development expertise, Stephen brings a deep understanding of design, gameplay, and world-building, while his wife Amanda’s extensive background in project management ensures every idea is realized with precision and care.

Based in Saskatchewan, Canada, Atomic Elk was born from a love of games and interactive storytelling, and a passion for games across the full spectrum of genres. Whether creating rich, exploratory experiences or action-packed arcade adventures, we aim to push creative boundaries and deliver engaging, replayable worlds across VR, PC, and beyond.

Our values

At Atomic Elk, we believe great games should be engaging, inclusive, and built with purpose, so we strive to create experiences that are welcoming and enjoyable for players of all abilities and backgrounds. We aim to push creative boundaries by both exploring and reimagining classic retro themes, and leveraging new ideas and technologies to craft unique and immersive worlds.

Every project will be built with care, combining polished thoughtfully designed gameplay and meaningful interactions. Our player-centered approach helps ensure that our games are intuitive, engaging, and rewarding to play and explore. As the gaming landscape continues to evolve, we’re embracing its new challenges, staying at the forefront of interactive entertainment by continuously learning, adapting and refining our craft.

At Atomic Elk, our goal is to create experiences that not only entertain but also leave a lasting impact, inviting players into worlds that spark curiosity and imagination.
