Refractory Studios is the business entity for one Scott Richards, a programmer and artist with a passion for gaming. Scott enjoys producing works which combine form and function. This includes websites and multimedia projects, but is best expressed in games. A longtime fan of space and flight combat games, Scott began working in 2003 on what would eventually become Talon. The project had many setback owing mostly to a lack of time and resources, but Scott was determined to see it through, and eventually in 2013 Talon was ready for initial release. Refractory Studios was created in 2012 in anticipation and for the purpose of publishing Talon.
