Turpitude, Inc., a Walnut Creek, CA-based independent online, mobile and social game company, closed a $1m Series A funding round.
Investors included The Band of Angels, The Angels Forum, Golden Seeds, and Sand Hill Angels.
The company plans to use the funds to launch new products and build a network of games across online, mobile and social platforms.
Founded in 2008 by Chief Creative Officer Stieg Hedlund with partners Natalie Fay and Trevor Shackelford, Turpitude initially designed cutting-edge game monetization systems and viral content for clients including Disney, Zynga and Playdom, before launching its own IP in 2010.
Its first social title, Wedding Street, launched late last year.
