Lantana Games was founded on November 18, 2009. We have always focused on children’s and educational game development. We have presented our games at events like PAX East, BostonFIG, and the Smithsonian American Art Museum’s Indie Arcade expo. We have been featured in publications like VentureBeat, Mashable, Polygon, PC Gamer, The Boston Globe, and more.

We started with small, free online games, and our first commercial product, Children of Liberty, was a Kickstarter featured project. This was followed up with Mondrian – Abstraction in Beauty in 2015, and its sequel, Mondrian – Plastic Reality, was released in 2020.

In 2014, we began working with schools like the Savannah College of Art and Design and Becker College to help students with their work and give them entry-level opportunities in game development. In 2017, we became a partner of Northeastern University’s prestigious Co-Op Program. As of 2018, our audience spans the globe, with tens of thousands of gamers across numerous countries.

Lantana Games is the recipient of multiple awards, including GameDev.Net’s Image of the Day, the 2016 Indie Revolution Expo’s Audience Choice Award, and inclusion in the Smithsonian American Art Museum’s Indie Arcade: Coast to Coast exhibit.

If you see our games at these sites, that means it’s a good place to buy them. Getting them at any of these portals directly supports us.

These sites include:

• Steam

If you see our games anywhere else, like sites for trading Steam keys, there is a chance there is a chance these keys were obtained illegally. We do not receive revenue share from sites like G2A, Kinguin, or other key resellers. If you have purchased our games from these sites, we ask that you follow our social media channels, leave a nice review for the game you bought, or buy a copy for a friend at one of the above approved distribution partners. Thank you!

Please also note Desura, IndieGameStand, and Discord are no longer approved partners. If you purchased games at any of these sites and have not redeemed a Steam key, contact us on Twitter (@lantanagames) and we will be happy to help.

If you’d like to know more about key resellers and what they mean for indies, please read this archived blog post on the matter.
