Digital Cybercherries Ltd. is a video game developer based in the United Kingdom . The studio was founded in 2015 by a group of close friends who shared the belief that the players are integral to the creation of their games.[1] They have developed and released two video games: New Retro Arcade[2] and Hypercharge.[3][4]

The studio's first game, New Retro Arcade: Neon,[5] was released independently on 1 August 2016. It was met with favourable reception and won VRDB's Players Choice VR of the Year 2016 award.[6]

Their second game, Hypercharge: Unboxed, was released for Microsoft Windows via Steam Early Access on 22 June 2017.[7][8] After being released on the Nintendo Switch in February 2020, it became available for Windows via Steam in June 2020.[9]

The team includes Joe Henson (Public Relations and Marketing Manager), Dec Doyle (Lead Programmer and Game Designer), and Ulrich Gollick (Lead Audio Engineer and Game Designer).[1]
