Three of the leading men behind Halo break away to create high quality downloadable games.

Lead by managing director Michel Bastien, who was a producer on Halo 2 and 3, the team also comprises Damián Isla, who led Halo’s AI design, as director of technology and Rob Stokes, who was a design lead on Halo 3 and a designer and writer on Halo 2, as creative director.

The team states in a press release announcing the Seattle- and Boston-based studio, “The Moonshot team firmly believes that the stars need not be limited to multi-million-dollar projects supported by armies of ground crew. There is a place in history for that small, nimble craft, built smartly on a modest budget, and piloted by expert hands.”
