About Neat Corp
Neat Corp is a small Stockholm-based independent ‘mostly’ VR games studio comprising a dozen developers, artists and designers. They made their mark in the early VR scene with the classic hit Budget Cuts and its sequel Budget Cuts 2: Mission Insolvency, both stealth action games entirely for virtual reality, which later inspired Half-Life: Alyx. After many years of action and dark humour, they did a 180 and decided it was time for something more bright and cosy with Garden of the Sea before returning to perfect the full Budget Cuts Ultimate experience. Now, they’re returning to Garden of the Sea to make it available for non-VR players.
