Serellan LLC is an American video game developer founded in 2011 by Christian Allen.[1] The company has released one video game currently, Takedown: Red Sabre for Microsoft Windows and Xbox Live Arcade. Their second title, EPSILON, is currently on Steam Early Access.[2]

History

Serellan was founded by Christian Allen in 2011. Prior to the company's establishment, Allen was lead designer for Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter and Halo: Reach.[3]

In June 2012, after the closure of Zipper Interactive, former staff Mark Nicolino and Reed Gonsalves joined Serellan.[4]

Serellan's first game was Takedown: Red Sabre. Originally titled as just Takedown, its development was financed through a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. It reached its $200,000 goal on April 2, 2012, with the final tally being at $221,833.[5] The game was released in 2013 for Microsoft Windows and in 2014 for Xbox 360. The Xbox 360 version was delayed due to not passing certification requirements.[6]
