About Arctic Lynx Games
Arctic Lynx Games started a few years ago by Jesper Bennhult, Hans Christiant (HC) Malmström and Magnus Gustafsson.
Jesper got the inspiration to try to make a game on his own from fellow colleagues Fryx Games that has produced a game that most of you have heard of – Terraforming Mars.
I (Jesper) drove down to southern Sweden and had a meeting with their CEO, who kindly answered all the questions I had at the time. I had a few different ideas about what game to start developing, but I eventually decided upon a game called Space Lanes which later evolved into Space Lane Trader. We started to playtest together with our gaming friends and pretty soon decided to make some bigger changes that we felt were needed to make the game more enjoyable. After more iterations and playtests that I care to remember, we ended up with the game presented on Kickstarter.
