Abstraction B.V. (formerly Abstraction Games B.V.) is a Dutch independent video game developer and publisher based in Valkenswaard, Netherlands. After having worked at Davilex Games and Playlogic Entertainment, Ralph Egas founded the company in 2007 as a sole proprietor and later in 2011 as an incorporation together with co-founder Erik Bastianen.[1]. The company focuses on porting games to a large variety of platforms and publishing them through digital distribution.

On September 4, 2018 another studio was formed in Warsaw, Poland.[2] The studio was closed in early 2021.
