Blue Dragon Studios

Blue Dragon Studios is a game designing studio headed by Travis. They are the main developers of the BlastGen franchise as well as other projects, such as Operation Snow Leopard and Project: RPG.

Founding and first game
Blue Dragon Studios was founded by Travis and was also assisted by coding genius Jonathan. The only members of the team were Travis and Jonathan themselves, as they didn't have a fully fledged company yet. The first game they developed together was called ProtoType, a first person shooting game that would eventually become BlastGen. At some point, Travis also started development on BlastGen, and eventually in 2012, the game was released to the public on Travis's developer page created from Wix alongside ProtoType. Players immediately confused the two games, with Travis stating BlastGen was a side project and ProtoType being the first project he worked on.

ProtoType removal and BlastGen II
ProtoType was officially removed from the page on June 19, 2013 after a year and shifted all work onto BlastGen. Eventually in early 2013, Travis started development of a new BlastGen game, BlastGen II. He experimented with a battle royale formula, which back then wasn't fully known to most. It was one of the first games to incorporate a battle royale mode and the first successful battle royale game in general. When the game was fully released, the game got very popular to the point where Travis shifted all development onto BlastGen II to keep adding content to the game to keep it alive.

BlastGen: Zero Ops and today
BlastGen: Zero Ops saw development 3 years after BlastGen II was released. Initially a work in progress game that "would never be complete", the game was released to the public as a private beta for fans. It is to this day still being developed and will most likely never be complete until at least early 2023, as some features are still absent. BlastGen: Zero Ops II is also being developed as well as a new top down RPG style game called Project: RPG. No one knows what the next game release will be, but its most likely that BlastGen won't end until a set year.

Trivia

 * One of the skins in BlastGen II, Blue Dragon, is a reference to the developers of the game.
 * Randomly generated USMC soldiers can have the name "Angelo". This is a reference to Travis's middle name, Angelo.
 * Most characters in BlastGen were voiced by either Travis, Jonathan, Keegan, or Theo. They use a voice changing software to make their voices sound different so the characters don't all sound the same even though their voiced by the same people.
