John Kovaleski, Founder and long-time General Manager of licensed game company Gale Force Nine, has formed Monster Fight Club, a new company, with two other GF9 veterans: game designer Aaron Dill, and Office Manager Peter Przekop. Kovaleski left Gale Force Nine in October (see "Kovaleski Leaving Gale Force Nine"), and based on their Linkedin pages, Dill and Przekop also left the company recently.
Monster Fight Club is described as a "hobby game and product development company," which will develop new games and provide creative and manufacturing services for other hobby game and entertainment companies from an in-house digital design studio and resin casting facility.
Kovaleski ran GF9 for 20 years. Dill designed most of the GF9 games, including Spartacus: A Game of Blood & Treachery, Star Trek: Ascendancy, and the upcoming Vault of Dragons – A Dungeons & Dragons Boardgame. Przekop was Office Manager at GF9 for twelve and a half years, and a four-year stint as leasing coordinator at Games Workshop in the mid-00s.
"Monster Fight Club will design and innovate new and exciting gaming products while focusing on the different and original," Kovaleski said of the new company.
