Game Development

In 2016, Nougaret founded a video games development studio named Unexpected.

The studio's first game, dWARf, was a commercial failure, but Nougaret considered it a "personal success" for himself and the studio's team. The game's online servers were shut down 4 months after the game's release due to a lack of players.

In September 2020, the studio's third game, titled As Far As The Eye released to mild commercial success, financing the studio's operations for the next 2 years.
