We’re social now: where to find Cool Monkey Studios

A man in a coat and hat in a foggy 1920s city at night: We're social now. Find Cool Monkey Studios on YouTube, Discord, X, Facebook and Instagram.

For a long time Cool Monkey Studios was a quiet little studio: heads down, building. That changes this week. We’ve opened our doors on social media, so you can follow what we make, ask us questions and see things before anyone else.

These are studio accounts, not just game accounts. Right now they’re full of Underground Evolution, our 1920s crime game, but they’ll carry everything we make from here on.

Where to find us

  • YouTube (@coolmonkeystudios): our cinematic teasers, short gameplay clips as Shorts, and devlogs as we go.
  • Discord: the best place to talk to us. News, devlogs, beta chat and the team hanging around in the channels.
  • X (@CoolMonkeysUK): quick news, the weekly poster countdown, and the odd behind-the-scenes peek.
  • Facebook: there’s a Cool Monkey Studios Page and a page just for Underground Evolution (18+).
  • Instagram (@coolmonkeystudios): the posters, the art and the look of Vesper City.

You’ll also find all of them at the bottom of every page on this site.

What we’re posting

For the next few weeks it’s all about the run-up to Underground Evolution opening its doors:

  • Five weeks. Five faces. One city. One poster a week, each one a face from Vesper City, starting with The Don.
  • Cinematic teasers for each face, in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
  • Real gameplay clips, captured in the game, so you can see how it actually plays.
  • Devlogs about how we build things, here on the blog and on Discord.
The Don, the first of our cinematic teasers. Not actual gameplay footage.
