Robert Bowling, who previously worked at Call of Duty developer Infinity Ward before starting his own independent gaming company called Robotoki, stated on his Twitter account that his studio was nearly robbed.

The Los Angeles-based developer is currently working on its first game, Human Element, a survival-action title set 35 years after a zombie apocalypse. It’s set for release during the fourth quarter of this year.
