About Us

Now

After a long hiatus,  Golden Gear returns as a two person studio focused on the creation of original games and apps. Featuring the design and programming of Alex Bethke and the artwork of Kienan Bethke, we're excited to bring our ideas to life as we embark on this new chapter in the company's history.

Andrew Traviss remains a supporter and silent partner in Golden Gear but has moved on from active involvement.

From 2010 to 2016, Golden Gear offered contract development services and worked with organizations and companies such as TIFF Nexus, Lionsgate Films, Fremantle Media, Kill Shakespeare, Social Game Universe, Bento Miso, Dames Making Games, Metanet Software and the Toronto After Dark Film Festival on a wide variety of games and interactive projects.

During these years the studio was led by Alex Bethke (COO) and Andrew Traviss (CEO) as they combined their decades of development experience to provide expert programming and production consulting services to their clients. 

Golden Gear's years of work culminated in their indie game, Fate Tectonics, which they designed and developed, along with the amazing artwork of Rosemary Brennan and music of Robby Duguay.
