Illfonic LLC ( ; stylized as illfonic or IllFonic) is an American independent video game developer founded in 2007 by Raphael Saadiq, Chuck Brungardt, and Kedhrin Gonzalez based in Denver, Colorado.
Illfonic was originally founded by Brungradt to produce records with Saadiq, but Gonzalez joined as they started devleopment at video games. In 2010, they acquired the rights to Nexuiz and released it in 2012, but the servers were taken down in early-2013 due to THQ's liquidation and bankruptcy. In 2015, they started work on a video game, titled in-development Salsher Vol. 1: Summer Camp, but Friday the 13th producer Sean S. Cunningham approached them with the video game license that would transform the game into Friday the 13th: The Game. Eventually, Gun Media approached them to publish the game, with release slated for late-2016.
Illfonic, as reported by news outlets, were skilled at the CryEngine game engine. However, Gonzalez has confirmed that the team will now use Unreal Engine 4 instead of CryEngine.
