Dark Matter Entertainment is a Toronto based independent game development studio. Our mission is to make high quality online and mobile games for the mass market. In 2007 we won the 1st round of the Great Canadian Game Competiton for a game concept called Vertical Ascent. Yannis Mallet CEO of Ubisoft commented "Even on a well-known platform you can still create a breakthrough with controls. The concept is immediate and intuitive and could be very addictive". In 2008 and 2009 we were awarded the OMDC Interactive Digital Media Fund, and received funding from Telefilm's New Media Fund for our current project. In 2011 we received an investment in our online game for tweens, Trinketz, from the Canadian Media Fund. In 2013 we released World of Trinketz on Facebook.
