Kiloo and SYBO Games co-developed Subway Surfers. According to the CEO of SYBO, Mathias Gredal Norvig, said “SYBO came about when Sylvester and Bodie, the “SY” and “BO” of SYBO met each other at the animation school in Viborg where they teamed up and made their graduation movie together about a young rascal that runs from a guard when he’s caught painting street art.”

After the update, “People started writing us fan-mail requesting that we visit their towns and got really excited about things I thought were little details.” Jonas Georgakakis, The art director at SYBO Games said. “So i think that’s the moment where i realized it’s more that just a game, it;s actually an emotional atatchment people have to our project”.
