Profile

About

Beehive Studios is an Italian developer, founded in 2021, that created LumenTale: Memories of Trey. The studio is led by chief executive Paolo Lella, with Fabrizio Laborano as creative director. The game began as a crowdfunded project before the studio entered a publishing partnership with Team17, and it is presented as a heartfelt creature collector that pays homage to the monster collector games that came before it while aiming to stand on its own.

The Game

LumenTale: Memories of Trey is set in the Italian-inspired land of Talea and follows Trey as he recovers his lost memories alongside creatures called Animon. For the full overview, see the LumenTale: Memories of Trey page.

Crowdfunding Origins

LumenTale: Memories of Trey began as a crowdfunded campaign, raising around 160,948 euros from backers, before Beehive Studios signed its publishing partnership with Team17 in 2025. The studio has positioned the game as its own experience rather than a direct rival to the genre's biggest names.
