Carbonated Games has been quiet for a few years, but soon it will start making some news about its mobile multiplayer shooter game. CEO Travis Boatman started the company in 2015 after leaving the big company life.

Boatman is a mobile veteran who did stints at Zynga, Electronic Arts, and Jamdat, which have been some of the most influential and important companies in mobile at various times since the mid-2000s. He runs a team of a dozen with a lot of experience, and they’re working on a top-down view, squad-based, real-time shooter game that uses the Amazon Lumberyard game engine. It will be a mobile-first free-to-play game set in a modern dystopian world.
