Talofa Games is a San Francisco studio that turns real-world movement into playable adventure. Founded by MIT-trained runner and game maker Jenny Xu, the studio builds 'fitness-first' mobile games - flagship title Run Legends is a co-op RPG where walking and running power your attacks, and Monster Walk turns everyday steps into a base-building, story-driven quest. Backed by $6.3M in seed funding and staffed by veterans from EA, 2K, and Riot Games, Talofa is trying to make exercise something you look forward to rather than schedule.

Cory Li is the CEO and co-founder of Spellbrush, the San Francisco-based generative AI studio behind niji-journey - the world's leading AI anime art platform built in collaboration with Midjourney. A MIT-trained bioengineer turned AI entrepreneur, Li previously co-founded Benchling (YC S12), the biotech R&D platform that went on to become a unicorn. At Spellbrush (YC W18), he leads a 31-person team building AI-powered anime games and creative tools - from WaifuLabs' anime portrait generator to Arrowmancer, an anime RPG where players design characters using generative AI, to niji-journey's mobile app with millions of users.
