The Story Behind the Name

The name "Emeraude" comes directly from The Legend of Kyrandia, a 1992 DOS adventure game developed by Westwood Studios.

As a child, I was fascinated by the magical emeralds that illuminated the mysterious forests of this legendary game. These precious gems became the symbol of his passion for development.

"These emeralds represented pure magic, technical beauty, and innovation. Exactly what I wanted to create with this engine."
— Sébastien "LondNoir" Bémelmans
