Pixel Blimp was an independent game studio established in Dundee, United Kingdom, in 2013 by founders Jordan Morris and Isaac Howie-Brewerton. The company focused on the development of casual games for mobile platforms, specifically targeting iOS and Android users.
The studio's portfolio included titles such as "Jump Stars" and "NTP". Pixel Blimp operated on a freemium business model, where the games were offered to users for free. Revenue generation was primarily based on in-game advertisements and optional in-app purchases made by the players. This approach is common within the casual gaming market, aiming to attract a large user base and monetize through a smaller percentage of paying customers and ad views.
In its early stages, the company secured funding from Microsoft Accelerator, indicating initial promise and support from a major industry player. However, according to company records and industry trackers, Pixel Blimp is no longer active. The UK's Companies House lists the private limited company, PIXELBLIMP LTD, as officially dissolved on April 7, 2020. Industry database Tracxn also categorizes the company as deadpooled.
