<a href="https://www.kuntacontent.com/">Kunta Content</a>
We build great African games. We are currently working on HIRU, a Maasai-inspired 3D Video Game for consoles &amp; PC. We immerse the player in the landscapes, beauty &amp; culture of Africa as never seen before. Our vision for HIRU is to inspire cultural conversation, similar to Black Panther, Money Heist &amp; Squid Game.
HIRU is the teenage son of a Maasai king. He is out herding cattle with his brother &amp; stumbles upon poachers hunting an elephant herd. He protects the elephants successfully and goes back home to find the poachers attacking his village as revenge. While fighting, he is knocked out &amp; wakes up to find his village destroyed, his family &amp; clan killed &amp; his sister kidnapped by the poachers. The gameplay is focused on intense combat, strong narrative and discovery within the environment. Players will experience the people, animals and culture of Africa.
We have signed groundbreaking partnerships with Minecraft, Xbox &amp; Microsoft as one of the few African studios to do so. We have also received support from Ubisoft, Epic Games &amp; Steam

The mission of the team behind kingkong ? To be passionate explorers. Inspired by art, culture, the digital and innovation, kingkong is a media, a voice, which promotes enthusiastic and creative writing. It cross-breeds viewpoints, tells life stories, inspires its readers to delve into subjects, practices and aesthetics, looks deeply into and mixes ideas, suggests solutions, turns perceptions upside down, triggers frissons of all types, and offers a large dose of entertainment which is both off-the-wall and, for the most part, intelligent.
Sewn by hand in Namur, Belgium, kingkong is a media which promotes creative and digital cultures, for strollers as well as for gleaners, eager for innovations and all that is multidisciplinary.
During the festival, kingkong&#8217;s two Julie&#8217;s will be based in the Creative Village marquee, offering two original content formats :
Donut interviews : short interviews at the end of the stage, presenting the &#8220;do&#8217;s&#8221; and &#8220;don&#8217;ts&#8221; of the themes addressed by the speakers during their presentations at the festival.
Take-away interviews : Take-away is a short, on-the-spot interview format, to be followed around the city of Namur during the four days of the festival.
