Events / History

Wahoo Studios owes its roots to another Utah-based video game developer, Saffire. As Saffire encountered difficulties in 2001, Steve Taylor, the founder and president of Wahoo Studios, as well as a number of other employees, left to find more stable employment elsewhere.[1]

In 2004, Wahoo Studios introduced the brand name NinjaBee for use in developing self-funded games,[2] reserving the title of Wahoo Studios for projects done on a contractual basis.

In January 2007, Wahoo Studios announced that they were joining the Massively multiplayer online game genre with Saga, an MMORTS, based in a persistent world for the PC.[3] However, in August 2007, they split - Saga Games and Silverlode Interactive finished the development of the game.[4]
