HISTORY

Formerly under the title “Maze Qore Arena”, this game began as a last resort after our most important project Maze Qore failed to acquire funding and was postponed until further notice. It was suppose to be a mobile game and an iOS exclusive, however we discovered the requirements to submit the game to the Apple Store was in reality too restrictive and tedious to bother, so we opted to try our hand releasing this as a cheap but fun commercial game instead. Our first release attempt failed in 2018 with a whopping zero sales, so after discussion, we decided to pull the game from digital store, improve on it, and try again through Steam instead. That brought a little more progress but still too little to make a difference. After 2 more years, we decided to overhaul the game into a cooperative survival arena shooter under a new name “Qorena” instead of a competitive arena shooter, while also trying again on the mobile front using a brand-new Android phone to test the game via the Google Play store.

Qorena is the first commercial game from the Qore World brand. Our ultimate goal for Qorena is to make a name and a foundation for the brand. It is in the business motto.
