When you visit Lethal Company’s store page, you’ll notice that the developer and publisher of the game is Zeekerss, a studio name you may have heard for the first time. Who is Zeekerss, the developer of this indie hit game, and have they developed Roblox games before? There isn’t a lot of public information available about them personally, as they prefer to let their work speak for itself. However, here’s what we do know.

Zeekerss is not a 'studio', but the solo developer behind the indie horror game Lethal Company. At the time of its release in October 2023, Zeekerss was 21 years old.

This news may come as a surprise since the game’s gameplay, mechanics, and features don’t look like it was created by one person alone, especially since the updates have been fairly regular and well done. The title is still in Early Access at the time of writing, but already has 250K+ “Overwhelmingly Positive” reviews, which is a tough ask, even for established devs and AAA publishers.

After creating experimental games on itch.io and Steam, Zeekerss caught the attention of content creators and managed to gain an audience before the release of Lethal Company.
